---Monarch Favorites

This collection highlights native plants, native trees, and native shrubs that are highly prized my Monarch Butterflies. Monarchs need milkweed for their larva of course, but they also need nectar plants to give them the energy to reproduce and migrate. This list is a selection of both!!! Enjoy!! Use the filter and sort button to the right to help you navigate :)
