Each summer the Rosalynn Carter Butterfly Trail looks forward to mid August. The migration of Monarch butterflies usually begins at this time.

In the past, we have anxiously waited for August checking milkw**d plants for Monarch eggs and caterpillars. Based on the quality of the milkw**d leaves and abundance of plants will determine the amount of caterpillars you may see in your garden.

The Monarch butterflies need tender milkw**d leaves, plenty of flowers for nectar and habitat that provides shelter for them. Some of our favorite fall bloomers include Joe pye w**d, swamp milkw**d, perrenial salvia, blue mist, swamp sunflower, cone flowers and porterw**d.

Monarchs will be traveling south toward the overwintering sites over the next couple of months so be on the lookout!

You are invited to join the Rosalynn Carter Butterfly Trail at www.rosalynncarterbutterflytrail.org and help provide habitat for butterflies.
