I am new to this, however I have had a butterfly garden here at home for going on 6 years. I have had milkweed growing every year with some years having 30 plus larvae on multiple plants. The last few years even with my milkweed growing I have not had or seen any monarchs. This year, I kept a watchful eye and was still not seeing a thing. One Sunday afternoon we spotted not one but 15 almost mature larvae. I placed them in multiple butterfly containers and continued to supply fresh milkweed daily. The first one went to chrysalis about 10 days ago. I have tags that were provided by a local enthusiast. I am patiently awaiting them to emerge. It is such a wonderful transformation and I can't wait to report more
