Milkweed is occasionally found in the province of Saskatchewan. It is found mostly in the southeastern part of the province near North Dakota and Minnesota.
Milkweed has seeds that travel by the wind and runners underground to produce more plants.
Crawfish live in shallow water. Milkweed does not grow in water.
There are different types of milkweed. Tropical milkweed grows in the south. Common milkweed grows in on the eastern side of the Mississippi River. There is western milkweed on the Pacific coast.
Monsanto uses Round Up to kill weeds and has genetically made corn so that it grows with the Round Up. So areas that grow corn have no milkweed and the monarch butterfly needs milkweed to survive. Many garden clubs are encouraging people to grow milkweed in their gardens and get highway departments to stop mowing roadsides where milkweed grow.
Yes, milkweed does grow in Cape Cod. Ive seen very few though because many people have cut it down.
Farmers that plant corn seed from Monsanto are putting Round Up into the soil. Milkweed will not grow. Milkweed is the only plant that monarch caterpillars eat.
Yes they do.
Yes
Milkweed plants are threatened primarily due to habitat loss, agricultural practices, and the use of herbicides. Loss of habitat reduces the availability of suitable areas for milkweed to grow, leading to declines in populations. Additionally, milkweed is a primary food source for monarch butterflies, and the decline in milkweed plants has contributed to the decline in monarch butterfly populations.

There is common milkweed, purple milkweed, tropical milkweed, and swamp milkweed.
As milkweed bugs grow, they go through a process called metamorphosis where they undergo distinct stages such as egg, nymph, and adult. Nymphs look similar to adults but are smaller and lack wings. They feed, molt, and grow until they reach their adult stage.
