Runner Beans eaten by bugs!
Well it is so disappointing, my runner beans have only been outside for 4 days and already they are being eaten by bugs.
I have put some broken egg shells round the base as they stop the slugs from getting near them.

Buddleia, ( Butterfly Bush) in May.
I wanted a butterfly bush this year and asked my neighbour ( the one with the cat!) if I could have a cutting from his tree well next day he came along with a plant he had dug up from some spare ground . It has survived winter and is now growing strong.
The Peacock butterfly and The Red Admiral butterfly.
Hopefully I will be taking these pictures from my own butterfly tree this year!
