Butterfly weed...

A new plant for us. It is finally blooming and makes a pretty yellow flower. I'm not sure the butterflies have found it yet!

It took a year for mine to be discovered, but I saw not a single Monarch on my very healthy milkweeds this year. See my month-ago post, https://365project.org/rhoing/365/2024-07-06

So pretty

So pretty & surely the butterflies can’t miss that beauty?

I've not seen this plant.

They’ll find it!

@rhoing Our butterfly population has been smaller and much lower in variety here as well! I'm not sure what is limiting them.

@corinnec Thank you!

@happypat Thanks, Pat! I've still not seen any on it!

@randystreat It is new for me, as well. It is also called Milkweed.

@danette I hope so! 😄
