Monarch on its host Milkweed
![]() The host plant for Monarch butterflies is the Milkweed. This is where the female Monarchs lay their eggs. It is a larval food for the Monarchs. Their caterpillars feed on the plant. Then, the Milkweed poison is stored, making this butterfly poisonous to birds. Of course, the Monarch helps with the pollination process of Milkweed.
