The U.S.A. now has plans to plant a Billion (yes, capital B) milkweed plant between Minnesota and Texas. That's a major route for their migration.

Planting could begin this year. Here's a link to the article in this morning's paper.

Our neighbor has had several milkweed plants in her yard. She tries to remove the seed pods before they break open, but we still get a few plants in our yard.
