I am embarrassed to say that I have tried for two years to grow several different kinds of milkweed (native) and have zero success. It's a weed!!! I want to help the declining monarch population. Yesterday I found these butterflies around my Lantana. Are they maybe juvenile Monarchs? If so...that would seem to indicate that I have milkweed somewhere within these 5 acres, right? I hope? Any help with growing seeds is also appreciated. I feel like such a failure. 😓
