Milkweed is coming into flower now, I hope it will soon be attracting monarch butterflies. I was struck by the way this plant was growing. It looked like a florist’s bouquet, vase ready.

Milkweed would make a sticky bouquet, but oh, the scent of those honeyed blooms! Hope the monarchs arrive soon. 🤞🏼

Hoping you get some monarchs. I’m seeing lots of butterflies in England this year, although it’s been a dry summer and the wildflowers have been ‘okay’ rather than spectacular around here.

Thank you, Adele. Butterfly numbers have been low here. Now that it’s warmer maybe we’ll see more.

Yes, it does look vase ready! Great photo. 😊 I hope you’re able to get some monarch pictures. I recently read that they are now considered endangered in Canada. Ugh.
