Comment on Don’t Make This Mistake When You Plant Milkweed (A How-To Guide) by Barbara Cowen

I live in NE Indiana & I have a beautiful patch of Milkweed in our garden, which seems to be the Common Milkweed or the Swamp Milkweed by your descriptions above, but I never see Monarch Caterpillars on any of it. I see an occasional Monarch butterfly come by, but few & far between all spring-summer long. The mauve/white/pink blooms are gorgeous when they come on & the greenery is very healthy every year. It’s been about 5 years now since I planted it, some that I harvested from the side of the road out in the country nearby. I just can’t believe I never see any Caterpillars eating the leaves. My Sister in Florida has tons of them & they always consume every leaf in her Milkweed Garden. I don’t understand??? I tried to specifically do this for the Monarchs. We have tons of bees, yellow jackets, even the “Milkweed bug” you showed with the orange & black body, but no Caterpillars ever. What could be wrong??

But I’d like to try those too.
