The aphids don't get bad until middle of summer. I usually see some
ladybugs in my garden, but they don't touch these aphids. I took my
Common Milkweed 3 years to bloom from small plants. The fragrance
is amazing. I had so many flowers. Hate to see it go, but it has too.
Here are the aphids, it gets worse than this.
