Fun for the whole family!! Hello, my name is Delores Goslin and I am native of Jacksonville. I began my unexpected journey into the world of the "King" of the butterflies, the Monarch, on a sunny Saturday afternoon a little more than 6 years ago. It started with a friend and a trip to the market to buy some milkweed for her butterflies. Long story short, I decided to buy a plant too and in the morning there was a beautiful chrysalis hanging off one of the leaves... several days later a beautiful male Monarch eclosed and I was hooked!! Since then I have been growing milkweed and supporting the Monarchs all year long.
