first common milkweed for 2020 along W&OD trail near Fairfax Connector bus terminal. These first shoots already 3-4 inches tall as the trailside vegetation of shrubs, vines, brambles, roses, grass, jewelweed sprouts, May apples, and dried stems from previous years shelter new sprouts of any vegetation including milkweed from easy view. We do not choose to toss aside other vegetation to search for milkweed as so much poison ivy also grows along the trail. Some stems of tropical milkweed also along trail here as much as 15 inches tall
