I spotted native milkweed in my side garden a little over 3 weeks ago. This milkweed was saved from a construction site last year. They were about to dig it up and I took as many plants as possible before they started building. I normally would never touch native plants outside my yard, but I saw no harm since it was going to be destroyed. Most plants didn’t take, but these few survived and came back this year. You need to take a lot of soil around milkweed if it’s gonna survive. They don’t like transplanting. At least this type.
