Well I'm growing my own butterflies. I was growing brussel sprouts, and very nicely they were doing. I noticed a couple of holes in some of the leaves, and a couple of white butterflies hanging about. I need to by some netting. I'd read in a book that these butterflies like cabbages / sprouts etc and I needed netting to protect them. That was a few weeks ago, and I'd been busy at work .......... and basically forgot. Till I went and looked at them tonight. Almost all the leaves are now full of holes and I have a nice crop of over 40 caterpillars.
Wonder if anyone wants butterflies for Christmas this year, rather than sprouts !!!!
