Spotted monarch laying eggs on asclepias tuberosa. Ive been seeing several monarchs a day since 4-9. This is about 45 days earlier than first sighting last year. I planted this milkweed last year from seed. Today was the first monarch egg ive ever seen. I just got involved helping monarchs last year so very happy to see this but worried milkweed will still be to small to support them when the hatch. May try to find more milkweed to buy at garden center to help feed them when they hatch.
