The flowers of the Swan Plant. Most are no longer in good shape after the ravenous caterpillars have stripped the leaves and stalks near them. I doubt we will see the “swans” that form after the flowers, providing seeds for next season. I hope we will see some Monarch Butterflies emerge after the feasting.

I managed to see the swans once. Last year the plants didn’t survive long enough to even flower.
