Hi everybody
It says in Collins that they were introduced into S Spain, if it is one have they now spread to Greece? This was photographed on Skopelos in July.
Many thanks.

Hi

You are correct a lovely Geranium Bronze They often over winter and fly in glass conservatories here in France The French are bonkers with regard to Pelargoniums and if you inspect the town flower beds this little butterfly is often amongst them

A few in my garden
