She's ready to do it again this summer.<br /><br />Dave,<br />Butterfly weed is one of the plants on my list to get. I have some seed but didn't get them started this spring.<br /><br />Darla,<br />It's definitely a fun project for the family. Good luck with your milkweed.<br /><br />Kelly,<br />I hope to be providing lots of updates & post on butterflies. We can learn together! More & more nursery's are carrying different varieties of milkweed now, so keep on the lookout.<br /><br />Frank,<br />Thanks for stopping by & for the great info!

You need a mixture of food sources from wild native plants; annual & biennial: herbaceous & shrubs plus the important larval food plants.
