Slugs play an important role in the soil ecosystem by breaking down organic matter. Sadly, they like to munch on many of our favorite plants, too. Fortunately, there are plants they don't find palatable, such as hydrangea (the photo shows a red-blooming variety called Forever & Ever). Photos: Suzanne DeJohn
One way to beat slugs is to plant things they don't like. Here are some of the most slug-resistant plants. For more ideas, check with your local garden center or your Master Gardener program: State and Provincial Master Gardener Programs.
