Saw the first mature Milkweed of 2018 in my side yard.
Where there's one, there's more, and the more Milkweed the better!!
Here she is

It makes me happy to see so many people helping out the butterflies and other pollinators. Keep it up ☺️

Thanx. Monarchs were my inspiration for my passion of butterfly gardening.
I cannot imagine the world without Monarchs!

She is a beauty!

I have not seen any yet, but when the ground warms up, I will have lots of milkweed. I also am growing MW from seed and have at least a couple of dozen that I can plant plus some seeds from pods I saved last year.

Unbeknownst to most of my neighbors, I consider the land between the alley and the backs of their yards to be part of my "butterfly garden." As Mikey Milkweedseed I will roam down the alley distributing milkweed. Most will never know, because they don't look at the alley until they get a citation for not taking care of it.

I grow it too. I now have 250 or so cells of it growing in sixpacks. I grow Fennel, Golden Alexander and Anaphalis from seed. The last one has seed like powder.
Anise Hyssop comes easily from seed but takes awhile. Major nectar plant!!!

I still have seed in the fridge. The last frost date here is May 19 and that is about 6 weeks in the fridge. I think I will still be growing them inside as it is very dry and windy this year

It's time to start them inside, I'd say...

Posted by DAB456What kind is this? I think I know, but would like another opinion.

Posted by bigpawbulletsNot sure what these guys are. But suddenly we seem to be getting a few of them in the "Habitat":

Posted by bigpawbulletsSilly meme. But an attractive butterfly. Photoshopped or real?
