We've had a potted milkweed for over a year, and have defended it from aphids naturally by squishing them and unleashing ladybugs on em. It finally paid off! Last week I saw my first monarch caterpillar and literally jumped with joy. Today I go to water my thirsty plants from the intense heat, and found the chrysalis hanging out on my dead mint (RIP). I'm over the moon!
