The A. tuberosa did a bit better, but again not as good as a normal year.

I found some eggs about two days ago, so hurray - they are still here!

I too have run into a similar problem and found it very discouraging.<br />Then I grew dill in a big pot on the deck and those years were so much better ! <br />But this year I could not find any dill plants at all and it was too late to start seeds .. I don't know if the lack of plants was due to the Covid crises but it really disappointed me.<br />I hope you have luck with new growth on the milkweed and you are able to have the Monarch cycle of life happen !CanadianGardenJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18130452541076704075noreply@blogger.com
