After spotting our first monarch, I inspected the pots of milkweed (I grew from seed indoors this winter)that were sitting on our west patio. Sure enough, I found multiple eggs on leaves. Since we will expect several nightime freezes in the next 2 weeks, I will continue to bring the milkweed indoors at night.
I have done this before, two years ago, and successfully reared and released 27 monarchs into nature.
