While moving some of Michaels broms to their new location at the BBG, I picked up this Aechmea by its leaves,only to be surprised that the pot did not come with it...and for good reason. One of the largest slugs that I've ever seen had made its 'home' in the base of the plant and proceeded to eat it from the inside,just about hallowing it out.The plant itself looked good, healthy red/green leaves,except for a few at the base,but I suppose it would have shown the results eventually.

Oh yeah,Sluggo had an accident and did'nt make it, tsk.
