When we were at Highgrove we saw the tiniest sweetpea flower I've ever seen.
Neither of us knew what it was - it's a light blue, all one colour IIRC and
probably less than an inch across. At first glance we thought we'd seen a
tiny butterfly. Anyone know what it is?

Vetch? We have the tiniest blue butterflies living in a holly bush. Guess what
they are called?

Tiny Blue? ;-) No, I don't think it was a vetch. It was in the Islamic
garden, being trained up a wall.
