Street Talk

Thanks for being part of London, Let's Get Rewild. This week's theme was the Big Butterfly Count, and we encouraged people to help butterflies and moths. We saw how your London garden could have tasty produce and beautiful butterflies, help butterfly numbers recover and smell divine. Caterpillars eating your cabbages? Plant nasturtiums nearby to tempt the butterflies to lay their eggs here instead. Numbers of butterflies and moths have plummeted since the 1970s. Join the Big Butterfly Count to help them through citizen science. Scented plants boost our mood and memory. Choose night-scented plants, such as evening primrose, honeysuckle and jasmine.
