Wooo Hooo - Going to MonarchWatch Open House tomorrow.

10,000 plants - SWEET - 12 Milkweed varieties including Tropical BTW. (Interesting and of 12 species, Ascelpias curassavica is listed first.)

This is particularly of interest to me personally, since my group, Missourians for Monarchs - Naturalists & Gardeners NW Missouri region was our statewide group's first and only recipient of a restoration grant from Monarch Watch.

We just finished my group's first (and largest of 9) projects - a 10 acre prairie restoration with plants from the MonarchWatch grant. Thanks to them and NRDC for providing funding.

You can check out some pics in the albums here (Mort Nelson Project):
