Monarch crack, Liatris Aspera
Last week I had 5 Monarchs on this single Liatris Aspera bloom, but could never get a good pic of them all at once.
Id love to see more blazing stars in native plantings (as well as just big box stores). There's so many species native east of the Mississippi that you're bound to find a good one for your conditions as long as its sunny.
If you're on the fence, plant some!

I have liatris aspera, pycnostachya, and spicata. Aspera is always the most popular with the monarchs
