Afternoon all! Another one of my #hosta plants that seems to have escaped the attention of the slug and snail squad! #hostaholic

@kez001uk - Very surprising Kerry considering how delicious it must look to my slimy garden residents! 😀

@bigemrg those leaves are an all you can eat buffet!!! But whatever you’re doing to deter the hottie creatures is definitely working 😁

@jacaranda - Another one rescued from the poorly plant section of Homebase a few years ago Barbara! Wish I could remember the variety! 😀

Good morning Ian I noticed it's in a pot have ever tried copper tape?

comment
bigemrg

@GREENFINGERSLTD - I've tried most things but not copper tape! Pellets are the only reliable way I've found to keep the majority of foliage so far! 😀

Copper tape can be good for pots it makes electrical charge so the slugs do not like to crossover.
