Milkweed, caterpillars, and monarch butterflies

 

We were blessed to attract butterflies throughout the yard with the numerous types of flowers we planted many being edible.
We planted milkweed in our side yard close to some of our raised beds. We discovered 8 monarch
caterpillars eating the 3 milkweed plants to the stems. 

This week we found a monarch emerging. What a gift to see the full cycle!
