Hi all,

I need your advice. My garden is mostly shady and I'm interesting in growing hellebores, hostas, toad lilly, heucheras and ferns. These plants would be happier with more water than I've been giving them and I know that mulch would help with that. However, I also have a problem with snails and slugs. Any advice on what to do?

Thanks.

Sarah
