I had about 5 swan plants.
I get why the rate of decline in monarchs.
They would eat a plant to destruction them move on to the next one. I lost hundreds of caterpillars. Still have some cocoons that didn't survive from last year.
They really need to come up with a better plan. Also doesn't help that swam plants are poisonous to a bunch of other animals. So can't plant them anywhere near where other animals are.
Also, wasps eat the caterpillars and if they find the plant, will keep coming back till they’re all gone!
Ah so they. We have millions of wasps.
