BUTTERFLY BUSH -ONE

Read any book or article about how to attract butterflies and bees into your garden, and one of the first things mentioned is to plant Buddleja. There are many different species, found naturally around the world in Asia, Africa and the Americas.
Commonly known as the Butterfly Bush, todays three posts, show it works very well at bringing butterflies into my garden.

This is a male Large White ( Pieris brassicae), and it's caterpillars can be a serious pest to cabbages and other similar crops.
