- Milkweed Species
- I recently observed three (3) monarch 2nd instar caterpillars on Tuberosa in a pot in my yard in East Tennessee (within the city of Oak Ridge). I have constructed a screen structure for outdoor rearing. I have a good amount of Tunerosa and Common milkweed and there are plenty of wild milkweeds of both types in an emergency.
