I’ve converted the bulk of the lawn on my lot back to prairie/woodland opening, and I feel like everyone is much more chill. I now have wasps, yellowjackets, and of course bees amicably buzzing around, in addition to the WASPs telling me how much they like it.
nope, they didn’t even germinate! i also planted a few lambs ear seeds and they’re thriving with such big leaves now. i’m either doing something very wrong or it’s a bad batch of seeds lol.
you should definitely feel proud, monarchs need all the help they can get. the caterpillars always look so cute, i hope they grow happy and strong!
ill have to give the butterfly weed a try when the seed pods open up
