Must be the elevation, because kudzu is certainly north of you. All over NC and in Virginia, too.

I plant milkweed, also known as Butterfly Weed. It has a beautiful bloom and is the food source for Monarch butterflies and caterpillars. I just transplanted a whole bunch of seedlings that sprouted below a plant that I bought last year. I hope to cover my whole side yard with milkweed.
