philomel I do have more pics, but so many things to distract me! Perhaps when it's colder I can update.

The small blue butterfly on the dahlia I thought may be Adonis Blue but turns out to be a Common Blue, they are so similar it's the extra orange patches on the top that separates them.

I have also had a Holly Blue, I saw it again recently, it likes to feed on the Passiflora caerulea, which unfortunately has a split stem and is dying, the good new is I have some self sets.
