One green-fingered garden fan claims you can have a thriving selection of shrubs without having to worry about 'slug damage'.
The slimy pests are known to munch on all kinds of leaves, ultimately leaving shrubs torn to pieces. However, they are also an important part of nature's eco-system, which is why prevention is a better route to take with slugs over killing them entirely.
It includes a wide array of shrubs that produce pretty flowers and even certain vegetables, from foxgloves to wallflowers, to roses and sweet peas. Gathered from one woman's gardening experience, she also highlighted that stronger, older plants are less likely to be snacked on by slugs over younger, weaker shrubs.
"I'm sure others can add to this list from their gardens but just wanted to show you can have a colourful garden without slug damage. Happy gardening." One comment stated: "Interesting that last year and thought my echinacea and alliums would be ok but they were a particular treat for the slugs and were eaten more than anything! They didn’t touch the purple sensation bulbs but gobbled up the Allium Millenium like they were Michelin.!
