Today in the garden...
Jun. 30th, 2025 10:01 amWent out early with the watering can to water the roses and more vulnerable plants. We are practising "laziness re-wilding", in consequence the lawn is full of ragwort, and the ragwort is covered in yellow and black striped caterpillars (which I believe one day will become cinnabar moths). Bees are scrambling all over the lavender and the air is full of insects. Today's butterfly: meadow brown https://www.wildlifetrusts.org/wildlife-explorer/invertebrates/butterflies/meadow-brown
