Asclepias tuberosa is just emerging - about 1" high (2 plants)
Asclepias incarnata is about 5 - 6" high, leaves not yet unfurled (2 plants)
rooted cuttings / wintered over Asclepias curassavica - one is about 8" tall, one is about 10" tall - and both have really tiny flower buds. Need to plant them in the ground, but concerned we could still get cold temperatures at night & that the plants could drop these first flower buds.
This is not enough for the caterpillars to eat; I hope the butterflies take their time getting here!
