Milkweed Sighted

Date: 05/06/2016

Number: 1

I have 18 plants up--some swamp milkweed both white and pink(A. incarnata "Ice Ballet" and A. incarnata , common milkweed (A. syriaca, and butterfly weed (A. tuberosa)...most about 10 inches high. The cool, rainy weather of the last 11 days has slowed their growth.

I have also just ordered 16 more swamp milkweed both pink and white to begin a second bed. If I get seeds this fall I will be spreading them around the neighborhood in the unused farmland across the road. I also hope to seed some constructed wetland areas/rain gardens around some new commercial areas and subdivisions a few miles away.
