I’ve been optimistic on this lately. Seen a few monarch butterflies recently, and a lot of home lawns and gardens, both sloppy and manicured, with milkweed left to grow. The gardener types for sure seem to be savvy. It’s only the perfect lawn bros who never seem to have any
Been seed bombing city lots when I harvest seeds in the fall, and recently have been doing the same with acorns. Trying to channel my squirrel mindset
Any advice on this? I too would like to bomb government property (with seeds)
Seeds and a clayey soil! Then just pack it in a ball and let it rip. I’ll more typically just toss handfuls of seed and let the wind do the work, but the “bombs” are fun to toss
We planted some butterfly milkweed in our back yard this year and I saw a monarch a couple weeks ago. I keep checking the milkweed for eggs (none so far)
Wait a god damned minute
I disagree. We can use the name as an opportunity to replace the British royal family with a family of butterflies
The People’s Butterfly!
How do people recommend helping butterflies out?
I know they look for flowers, but besides that is there anything else that can be put out for them? I have a few butterflies that regularly hang out on my patio and would like to support them a bit.
