Ornamental corn: a treat for slugs?

18 years ago

Hi. I have germinated a number of Zea mays 'Quadricolor' (a corn grown for its ornamental foliage striped pink, yellow, white and green). The seedlings are gorgeous - all slightly different and growing very fast. I have them in the greenhouse still but will be planting them out soon.

My question is: do slugs and snails eat sweetcorn foliage? (Forewarned is forearmed!)

Many thanks for your input.
