Dahlias now in pots, just need to place them around the garden.

So much for reducing my pots! I am loathe to plant these in the ground, mainly as there are already slugs and snails in the garden. At least I can protect them a little in pots.

I’ve rarely had snail damage on my plants, but yesterday I saw my mini petunias had been eaten. I soon found FIVE snails! Grrr …

I just posted a picture of a big slug on my dahlia. So frustrating, is not it?

Sheila, it's so disheartening to see the damage done by slugs and snails. They leave Geums and Welsh Poppies alone, thank goodness, or my flowerbeds would be wrecked!
Klahanie, if only the Deer would eat the slugs, problem solved, haha!

I have the same problems with dahlias Shirley. Slugs love them. Deer leave them alone.
