I have found that slugs love Orostachys spinosa. They slide right past all the other varieties of Orostachys and other plants, and will only feed on spinosa. Spinosa is gone, every last speck of it. I tried keeping slug bait out but the rain kept washing it away. : ( I will try with a new spinosa and not have it in the beds, will keep it in a pot out of harms way. Funny how the slugs show no interest in the other ones.
