My daylilies show no sign of blooming this year.
But the Sweet Williams have started blooming!
The slugs eat my hostas. Stupid slugs.

Oh, I bet your daylilies will bloom in the summer. Mine usually bloom in July, although I know some bloom for longer. Yours look healthy. The sweet William is beautiful! Is that perennial? I have wild sweet William, and it looks entirely different.
Okay, good. I thought the daylilies were usually the first to bloom, so I've been waiting for them. The sweet william is a perennial.
Those darn slugs...you can get ride of them by putting shallow containers of beer by the plants that they are eating. Don't use the good stuff though...buy the cheap stuff for the slugs. They don't deserve the good stuff!
Any other anti-slug ideas? They're eating my hostas, too, for the first time. Mine are in the front of the house, and we're showing the house, so I'd rather not put containers out there. Unless I could put them out overnight. I never see the slugs, so do they come out at night?
They do come out at night, supposedly. There's a product called Sluggo, that I used before I heard about the pan-of-beer idea. You sprinkle it around the hosta. It looks like little white pellets. Since I used it, the hostas don't look like they've been damaged any further.
