Phacelia ....
... which I had sown in the walled garden, not that long ago, was a star attraction today. This Common Blue, this first I have noticed in the walled garden, the Painted Lady (in extras), hundreds of honey bees, Bumble bees & many various white butterflies were enjoying it.
I didn't intend to visit the walled garden today, as I walked elsewhere, but got a message to say the Silver Washed Fritillary & Painted Lady butterflies were there so I just had to call in! If you don't already know, Phacelia is a great green manure. I learnt that this year, along with how easy it is to grow, how beneficial it is for the butterflies & bees & it is very pretty.
