That's such a shame carolb. 🙁
Newbie to gardening with a little bit of horti knowledge but still needing all the advice I can get
I think I was to kind to it and made the kitchen towel I put it on a tad to wet, the poor thing went mouldy 🙁
But I love the butterfly in your picture.

Hi Folks, recently I was moving a flower planter which was sitting on old bricks and underneath I found this beauty a bit of research tells me (I believe) it is a privet hawk moth, I was so happy, at the moment he is sitting in a coffee jar with some leaves in my shed and I am hoping he will turn into a wonderful moth next spring.
I think he is on the point of turning into a chrysalis (sp) as he was not active when I found him.
