LOL, Lottie.  When I was watering my pots just a while back a fine fat ladybird landed in my t-shirt.  I helped it onto my Evening Primrose (fantastic show this year but plagued with aphids) and it is still munching away happily.   ;D

Me too. And what with the Jasmine and the Sweet peas now coming into bloom I'm in seventh heaven.   ;D

I've just give the odd plant a good spray with the hose now and then if things get out of hand I have an organic spray (soft soap) as a standby.

As for smells, can't wait for my Lily Nipon to come into bloom in the next few weeks and I'm working on winter smells.
