Salvia and Hosta.

Hosta oddly no nibbling at all, the salvia however, something is nibbling the leaves 🙄

Think it’s struggling a little, Sheila..

Kate, I found the following info:

Caterpillars, slugs and snails, grasshoppers, aphids, earwigs, lace bugs, thrips, and spider mites are some of the insects that can attack your salvia and eat them up.

Birds like to eat tender young leaves.

Obviously loved by many critters!

Blimey! I think my salvia is in trouble, Shirley! Thank you so much though, for your research! It’s very thoughtful of you and helpful for me. I’ll maybe look at moving it?

That sounds like a good plan ...
