stuart noble writes Can anyone suggest what may be attacking my pansies? They're in troughs on a window sill and, one by one, something seems to be lopping the tops off very cleanly at ground level. No soil or root disturbance, and no damage to flowers or foliage. Any advice welcome Slugs. Of course. Why didn't I think of that? Thanks to both. Copper rings it is then. They're active at night so you won't see any signs during the daytime, but they eat through soft stems at ground level. I don't know whether you're experience will be the same, but I've found that violas don't get slug damage whereas pansies do. It seems quite strange to me, since they're so closely related. |
