Somewhere in one of her books, all of which I just re-read so I can't tell
you which, Elizabeth Lawrence says I. unguicularis is highly prone to being
devoured in the bud stage by slugs whick lurk in the foliage bases.
Elizabeth Lawrence of North Carolina, whose best known book is A Southern
Garden, was a landscape designer and plantswoman extraordinaire who wrote
specifically for gardeners in what amounts to USDA Zone 7-8 in the
mid-Atlantic/southeastern USA, roughly from Maryland down. Her books are much
esteemed both here and abroad.
