But I can't bring myself to throw them overboard. I tried to put them all on the old plant, but I'm not sure they will stay there, there isn't much to eat as I already ate all the leaves. And what if they get to the tarragon? It's so damn hard to grow, and it's still tiny!
Argh, that happened to us last summer. We had the conservatory doors open, and a bunch of cabbage white butterflies sneaked in. This year we'll be vigilant!

Oddly enough, they didn't do much damage to the basil, but they *loved* the rocket.
