Slimy gazania

Should I pull them out or cut them back?

In London. Keen but lazy.

  • Gazanias are tender perennials and won't over-winter in most UK gardens so they usually get treated as annuals - if they've gone slimy my guess is that they've had their chips - I'd pull them up and sow fresh seed or get plug plants in the spring

    Thanks Dove. I suspected they weren't particularly hardy.

    It will be my pleasure to pull them put as they look horribleimage

  • Yep, once they get like that they're just food for slugs - no need to encourage the blighters image
