Blooms is one of several popular destination garden centres in and around Swindon. This one is just outside the Borough and is in North Wiltshire. One of its features is a butterfly house where visitors can wander round in a sub-tropical environment where exotic butterflies, and a couple of colourful finches, flutter around. This butterfly is a Zebra Longwing (Heliconius charitonius), a native of South America.
