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.
