It certainly didn't hang around ...a few laps of the garden every 30mins is suffice

Not sure if this was same moth from other day but it was in my summerhouse just now and was a pleasure to set it free again

They are great plants for butterflies.

I have always struggled to grow them in my garden despite planting one or 2 every year but the one by the pottingshed has finally taken off ...taller than the pottingshed infact

Very nice Linda.
