Too many to count. Never been hit this hard this early. Even on small tropical milkweed seedlings. Watching close to see they have enough to eat. Now worried what they will eat when they are butterflys. Have several Lantana blooming, some Tropical Milkweed and a Mexican Sunflower will bloom soon. Just bought a new butterfly bush so it would be blooming for them. Keeping some tropical milkweed in the house under lights in case I need more food for them. Growing fast in this heat wave.
