Painted Lady butterfly visiting an ox-eye daisy? Yep, your eyes are not deceiving you!

Thank you to my friend for sharing this pic taken in Carmarthenshire, Wales, of an ox-eye that originated from my little nursery and has been living a happy life in a container.

I had never associated ox-eye or 'moon' daisies with being nectar plants for butterflies, but guess its super accessible flower-shape helps.

Nature is full of surprises!

While I can't guarantee Painted Lady butterflies, I will have ox-eye daisies available at my next Exeter plant stall 👉 20 June at Exeter Quayside Farmers' Market 🌼 🌼 🌼
