NYBG EcoFlora Update, August 2019
It's August and time for the annual MILKWEEDS AND MONARCHS EcoQuest Challenge.
Milkweed plants are beautiful and amazing species that support numerous other organisms, including Monarch butterflies, but also Bees, Wasps, Flies, Bugs and Birds. They are like the Walmart of the plant kingdom. Help us document Milkweed plants and Monarch butterflies in New York City. Of the eleven species indigenous to NYC, only three are common today. Document as many species in your community and advocate for more plants and more diversity of native species.
