Creatures leave their mark

slug damage to petunia - edited Many creatures have left their calling cards in my gardens.  The wet, humid weather has caused a bumper crop of slugs.  They usually only feed at night, but not this year.  Maybe it's their numbers, maybe the lack of sun has kept the slimy crawlers from seeking daytime cover. Regardless, the telltale shiny trails left on this petunia, and on many of my lettuce and tatsoi plants, show slugs are feasting quite well.

  • A hosta habitat, but so much more:
    • joenesgarden: If you make a road trip to CT, Christine, you must let me know so I can meet you at O'Brien Nursery
    • joenesgarden: It is a real treat for visitors - definitely dream-worthy, Deb.
    • Christine B.: That Daphne has been on the to-buy-at-any-cost list for several years. I don't suppose I'll see it up here anytime soon. Wish we had a hosta nursery where I live but I suppose it's a good excuse for a road trip, right? Christine in Alaska
    • debsgarden: Wow! Heaven for hosta lovers! I could have spent hours there. I also love ferns and evergreens, so this would be a real treat for me. I will dream about it!
    • joenesgarden: Debbie, I'm sure you will choose the best spot. I'll watch for any future assessment you have. The low growing acer is one of the plants on my want list.
    • joenesgarden: Cyndy, it's easy to find 'excuses' to return. Maybe we need a CT bloggers' visit to O'Brien's.
    • Debbie: Joene, Your photos perfectly captured that wonderful afternoon at O'Brien's. yes, the rumor is true...I snagged the 'groundcover acer'. I still haven't planted it yet, I'm trying to figure out the perfect spot for it.
    • Cyndy: Hi Joene, I completely missed 'Deep Blue Sea' and that acer - guess I'll have to go back! Thanks for the link love :)
  • Nasturtium chronicles:
    • joenesgarden: Sounds like a great plan, Laurrie. Be sure to share photos with us next year.
