My friend Bob noticed the first milkweed shoots today. In a few days he will mow the entire field they're growing in to discourage the other "weeds" and wildflowers. This mowing gives milkweed an advantage and it dominates the meadow as summer proceeds. We call this meadow our wild butterfly garden.
