My first Monarch arrived on August 5th. It had a damaged wing. It really enjoyed my butterfly bush, zinnias, lantana, cosmos and heliotrope. I hope I see more this weekend.

I have a few volunteer milkweed plants growing under my deck and alongside my front porch. I even 'borrowed' a few from the grounds at work (before they cut them down) and transplanted them. My container garden will probably not qualify as a Way Station, but I hope I can attract more Monarchs than I did last year.
