Nymans Gardens - full of colour

If you're looking for loads of colour and many varied plants.. then I recommend Nymans Gardens.

I met a friend today.. the sun shone and the sky was ,  mostly, blue..  Lovely to see so many Handkerchief Trees ...

a lovely morning out..




















If anyone knows what this flutter is?.. I've no idea -but I believe is one of the 'Carpet' Moths?..

EDITED : and thanks to Maurice for his ID of Silver-ground Carpet moth









Apparently this is a Speckled Yellow Moth

Hi Tricia

Your Carpet moth is a Silver-ground Carpet moth, one I haven't seen around here yet.
There were lots of Speckled Yellow moths yesterday at Bentley Wood, West Dean, Wilts, together with lots of butterflies.

Cheers

Maurice

Ponders has pecked your scone! Lovely bright day there, this four off, possibly my last, has been rather dull until this evening.
