If you grow milkweed to support monarch butterflies, spring is the time to pot up all those volunteers in your yard and to gift them to neighbors without asking them whether they want them. #monarchs #butterflies #milkweed #asclepias #plants #flowers #gardening #garden #pollinators

Oleander aphids (Aphis nerii) on a swamp milkweed seedpod that has been chewed open, I think, by a monarch butterfly larva. Almost all aphid species adopt a headstand posture (facing ground) when feeding. Interesting. #aphids #milkweed #hemiptera #insects #entomology #asclepias
