Congratulations, Paul, what a gift!
Such true generosity from the Forumists.... warms my heart, I tell you.

Just wait til you see it it real life. Make sure slug pellets are set around it. It's one of those plants that Peter Korn would say - they eat the plant first, then the pellets and die happy!

Mark,

You do realise don't you that Snails and Slugs have an innate means of determining the rarity and "choice-ness" of any plant, making a bee line for those plants which are the rarest and choicest?  They'd climb over broken glass, copper wire, and wheat husks to get to my Weldenia.    They KNOW how much it means to me.
