This is one of my first season milkweeds. I foraged the seeds from a nearby plant and got them going indoors and everything. This one in particular got eaten to the ground twice. Both times, it came back as twice as many plants.
One thing I've been learning this year through gardening is that plants are incredible. They have their limits (our sunflowers didn't recover from being repeatedly chomped), but some of them really spring back.

We have a lot of milkweed plants but haven't seen too many monarch caterpillars. Yesterday though, I spotted a good sized one! #monarch #caterpillar #photography #summer #closeup #milkweed #illinois

He kept circling me before he landed - I thanked him for giving me plenty of time to grab my camera (phone).
