In re your comment; the second brood of butterflies have been hatching out recently so it will be safe to cut your nettles now. With the warm early-autumns we keep having there is a possibility of a third brood, so a prune will stimulate fresh growth on which the female is most likely to lay eggs. Butterflies lay eggs on many different plants, I think this document may be of use to you: <a href="http://www.butterfly-conservation.org/uploads/caterpillar%20food%20plants.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.butterfly-conservation.org/uploads/caterpillar%20food%20plants.pdf</a>Bertie Bainbridgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13481499819811821263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2328470544955323705.post-10935753242190268572012-08-15T08:52:55.578-07:002012-08-15T08:52:55.578-07:00Thank you Suzanne... welcome!Thank you Suzanne... welcome!Greenorchidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17429772996167532604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2328470544955323705.post-69715540428132823552012-08-15T02:27:12.889-07:002012-08-15T02:27:12.889-07:00I've enjoyed reading this super blog, I'm ...I've enjoyed reading this super blog, I'm now following and I'm off to visit your other blog now!
