I may hold off and start them off next fall. The video was just lucky. I wish I had video of my face as the chrysalis burst open in my hand, before the Mister picked it up and I got my phone out!Dreaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02113432418609414054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6816015196790632629.post-46004223645319403132020-07-14T22:08:51.280-06:002020-07-14T22:08:51.280-06:00Milkweed is fairly easy to grow from seed.

So, we will trim the tropical plants back. We have seeds for other milkweed and will use that for next year.Dreaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02113432418609414054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6816015196790632629.post-12780525355149659492020-07-13T09:46:40.913-06:002020-07-13T09:46:40.913-06:00I like your butterfly garden.
