Aquilegias
 

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?

I have a slug- and snail-ridden garden to the extent that I grow my french beans in the greenhouse to keep them away from slugs. Yet I have self seeded aquilegias everywhere every year. So I'd be very surprised if it were slug damage.

I agree with Kay on this one - I can't rid the garden of Aquilegia
despite having a serious slug problem on other plants; they self-seed
everywhere including the driveway.

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.

Any sticky trail around?
I picked up an aquiligia at a garden centre once and it housed just
such an creature. Also, one which has survived here only did so
because of a strategically placed beer offering. Located next to the
plant which was where there wasn't much of a choice to nibble on;

Aquilegia is the botanical name for columbine. It doesn't grow in
Brazil, nor does its name sound even remotely like "aquarela."

You can tell Ann Lancing that columbines can be tricky to grow in a
garden.
