I take it monarchs have gone native in Australia? Seems like a long way to fly
from the americas. Does anyone know if they came with or after the ENglish, or
were they already there? What did they eat before the arrival of the
Asclepias? Or are there native Asclepias that they feed on? Hoing you now as
much about butterflies as weeds . . .
