I was checking on my plants today -- they are doing quite well since being planted [though i still have 4 more in a pot that i have to get in the ground]

only 1 of the plants had a bunch of those gold aphids again... i sprayed it with soapy water --- seem to do the trick.

but here is a pic of the ones still in a pot, almost in bloom.

Any idea if rabbits eat scarlet milkweed??
I want to plant them out near my butterfly bush -- but there are bunnies back there and i dont want them to become snacks.
