Went out this weekend to check and see if the Milkweed that grows wild out behind my neighborhood between the walking path and creek (Little Hunting Creek) had started coming up and I was very happy to see that there was new growth coming up in the same areas as last season! (Picture submitted)

(Also, the Milkweed (Native Common & Swamp) that I have had growing in pots for the last few years in my backyard has also returned and is growing nicely. These started sprouting about 3 weeks ago. Although this year my Swamp MW started coming up first before the Common MW, which is the opposite of how they began in the previous years. I usually get my Common first then the Swamp follows shortly afterwards.)
