RE: Butterfly Milkweed (Asclepias) in My Garden (Required Plant for the Monarch Butterfly)

in #gardening7 years ago

You can also get all kinds of milkweed seeds on eBay for fairly reasonable prices, or just collect the seeds from wild milkweed, which is still quite beautiful. Let's see if I can post some pictures...
Mmmm..., doesn't seem to be working, it just pastes the path to where the pic is stored on my HD.

Hey @ Cryptopolis! Thanks for reply! Well, I almost had some from seed.. also SADLY this year I was unable to get to the nursery where I got those plants. Mb I can get more seeds going this summer, I kept some, it's good to be pessimistic sometimes haha.

The basic way to post an img on steemit is in markdown, do this: ![](yr img). I think u can put txt in the brackets, i never have. Yr img has to be an html url path, so you hv to save yr pic on a cloud site, i use imgur. It's easy, also like imgsafe.org. Hope these links work, if the imgur comes up on my pg hope u will let me know lol.
Imgs will also post just with the url, w/o the markdown code. See where "Markdown Styling Guide" is in blue, click it and it shows how to do a lot of stuff. What I've learned is a mash-up of markdown and html. Not too hard.

Thanks Mary for the reply & explanation how to post an image. I'll give it a try later. I used to have a flikr account, but I haven't used it for years, so it may not be active anymore. I'll try imgur.
