Monarch butterflies are expected to be extinct in 10 years #finches #crestedibis #neotropicalbirds

Hey everyone, it's Bailey with TN Nursery, and what you're looking at here is some milkweed, and them are monarch caterpillars on them. Now, that's the milkweed that I just showed you that we have dug right here. We're putting them up, we're putting them in cold storage so we have plenty to ship to y'all in springtime. They're big, beautiful bulbs. You can't get much better than these. And let me just show you some. They're just so big and pretty, and milkweed is the one of the most important plants that you can grow. The monarch population has declined almost 98% since the '80s, and they're about to go extinct completely. This is the only plant that they'll lay their eggs on and that they will eat and live off of, is these right here. These don't look like much, but they're absolutely beautiful in springtime. Now, when you get plants, uh, milkweed plants from like Home Depot or somewhere, they're hybrid milkweed. Monarchs don't fool with them. They love these native milkweeds, and this is native milkweed. It loves swampy ground, and we have it right now buy one get one free online at tnursery.net.
