Description

We expect management and restoration of early season milkweed (asclepias SPP.) habitat throughout california to be critical for improving population numbers and decreasing extinction risk of the western monarch (danaus plexippus). However, we know little about the current distribution of early season milkweeds throughout the species early breeding zone. In an effort to better understand the distribution and abundance of early season milkweed, staff at the santa barbara botanic garden (SBBG) will conduct field surveys to identify areas where a. Californica and other early season species of milkweed (a. Vestita, a. Eriocarpa, and a. Erosa) are growing within the LOS padres national forest (LPNF). We will also initiate early season milkweed conservation seed collections for banking and bulking to support future restoration activities. Lastly, SBBG will collect early season milkweed leaf material for pesticide sampling.
