• my Sun King Aralias to the ground if permitted
• Asclepias incarnata, swamp milkweed. Checked yesterday only to find ALL new shoots have been eaten and I won’t be ready for early caterpillars
• baptisia. They ate one into the grave, never to try to emerge again
• Anise hyssip Golden Jubilee.
• goatsbeard
• Monarda bradburiana. An attempt to eat in completion which I thwarted.

Many of these plants are RIGHT BESIDE HOSTAS, and my hostas are surrounded by huge leaf litter, so much so that I often have to remove an oak leaf that is constricting a hosta leaf from completely opening. I NEVER find slugs on hostas and the leaves show no signs of being eaten by anything excerpt deer. Unfortunately, the deer do not prefer the delectible beer traps I put out. Always so thankful I have Irish slugs.
