A single monarch stopped to lay about a dozen eggs on two asclepias plants; one speciosa and one tuberosa. Could not get a picture of her, she fluttered away anytime I came near. The plants have not flowered yet, but are about to. I called the Xerces society and they gave me a location that has more speciosa, so I plan to transport some of the caterpillars, (assuming they survive) since one plant will not be nearly enough for so many.
