So, today I was clearing up past it flowers and one of the things on the list was my patch of Swamp Milkweed. It's floppy, covered in aphids and hasn't bloomed in at least 2 yrs. I'd decided to cut it back and dig it up once the weather gets cooler BUT today there were a handful of Monarch caterpillars! Couldn't be much more than a couple weeks old. Guess it's staying but might get replaced by one that would bloom regularly like the Yellow kind...
