Here's the last post of three on the topic of milkweed and monarchs... at least til next year...
 |
| The milkweed flowers are rather pretty, I think. |
 |
| Lots of insects are attracted by the bright colors and tasty pollen. |
 |
| Seed pods form along the plant stalks. |
 |
| The seed pods dry, break open, and send the seeds drifting in the wind like dandelion fluff. |
 |
| We've saved some seeds to plant to keep the monarchs returning next year. |
