Rather a rubbish day .Woke up tired !! Wasted time making phone calls !! Waited for return call ! Gary came home tea time & came out with me to tidy part of the garden !! Took this photo without much enthusiasm !! But one good thing got a photo before the slugs & snails got the Hostas !!
@jo13 I didn't know about pour on liquids - but I do tend to leave "Au naturale" !! in case I have a poorly doggie or even worse dead doggie ---that would never do !
@beryl No you are absolutely right, the more natural the better. When I plant hostas for clients though I give them a little dose of something so that they look good for as long as possible!
@jo13 That does sound good --this variety is quite prolific Hence I seem to regulary split the clumps in autumn & have quite afew in the back garden ,they do add to the texture & colour of the borders .My friends have benifited from my splitting the clumps as well -bucks free & bigger than they would get in the garden centres !
Lovely - I have some of these but they are nowhere near this stage yet. They are still little tubes of leaves coming out of the ground. This is a very attractive one. Half oranges with beer in are supposed to deal with slugs, although I haven't tried it.
