A little inspection of our #Nicotiana tabacum nursery before the #weekend 🙂
Everything looks fine

Mrs Sciencebase will attest to how excited I got when a couple of Convolvulus #Hawk-moths (Agrius convolvuli) turned up in our garden at the end of the summer.
They were initially drawn to tobacco plants (#Nicotiana) that we had grown specifically to attract them. I think we had them arrive on three occasions with at least two on one night. Likelihood is that they are the offspring of migrants from mainland Europe
