Our local Ace Hardware Nursery had put their milkweed plants on sale, buy one, get one free, so went to look at them. As I'd called first, the sales lady in flowers & plants told me that they had caterpillars on them so not sure if I'd want them. I figured it must be Monarchs, so went by to check on them. Sure enough, loaded with Monarchs & a few Queen caterpillars, too. One of the man who worked there used to help run a butterfly farm, so he came over to plants section to help out & moved all the queen cats over to a couple other plants. As late in the season as it is, I wonder if these will make it to become butterflies? It was 49 here in our area last night.
