Something chewing on the end of the leaf buds (slugs? don't know) has had quite an effect. Its becoming more and more obvious how much as the leaves continue to enlarge (and turn from soft white/silver toward mature green). I think this poor plant lost a third of each leaf. Next year I'll try to prevent this somehow...
Something got at a couple of my leaves too. Why can't they pick something smaller and less dramatic to munch on?
ReplyDeleteRight! Permanent battle scars... :-(
