    If it’s any consolation @CostasK, I made the same mistake a few years ago with a speciality Eucalyptus which I bought to hide my neighbour’s home office/shed.

    Have they sold out then? Where there other bulbs there? Their slogan is buy while it lasts. I might’ve just got lucky. If you can it might be worth checking other Lidls.

    Saw brimstones again. Watched a very pale peacock feeding on a blue hyacinth and then basking on a stone slab. Quick glimpse of a comma near the pond. A few years ago we had sparrows pulling at the primrose flowers. Haven't done it this year but now they are having a go at the forsythia flower buds.
