My aquilegia plants have been stripped of all their leaves, and therefore
are not flowering either.
They are established plants. Do slugs like them? I have never had this
problem before.
Can anyone help?

Like the others have said, I do have plenty of slugs and snails but they
have never touched my Aquilegias.
Bit of a mystery.



My Mum had a yellow one which regularly had it's leaves stripped, though the
flowers themselves were left. As it only happened to this one plant, and
the mauve ones on the other side of the garden were untouched, we always
thought it was some rather fussy caterpillars.
