The Snail that eats my Hosta plant! by Spencer Lambeth-Angell

Oh 😮 but it's a cute snail though 😁

Thanks Faye. I thought his colouring was lovely and his shell pattern a little different to others.

Like this story Spencer, good painting too!

Nice snail!

I think these are strange alien creatures. I have several Hostas in pots, so far so good. I'm glad you said the anti-snail gizmos are no good, I was thinking of getting some. When I was a nipper I used to have snail races with my brothers, we'd stick a number on their shell, and hope they'd all go dashing (?) off in the same direction. I like your painting.

He's certainly coming out of his shell Spencer. Very original work.

Lovely work Spencer.

Naughty snail but such a lovely idea!

Thank you so much for your comments Katy, Heather, Lewis, Ronald, Denise and Thalia.

I don't like snails but he looks rather cute. I like it.

Thank you Valerie.

Lovely snail with beautiful structure, Spencer!

Thanks for your lovely comment Manoj.

I think he is a lovely snail well painted

Very fresh painting. The snail will come back!

Thank you so much Anne and Val-Irene. I’m sure they have homing systems to find their way back to their favourite plants.

Very nicely painted Spencer. Nice detail too.

Thanks for your comment Rikke.

Never been keen on these little chaps, but I dislike their cousins more. Still, I tend to tolerate them and then drop them over the garden fence. My neighbours have a terrible snail and slug problem. Super portrayal of these insatiable little blighters. Bri

I like it Spencer.

Thank you so much Brian and David.

He looks a treat, shame he’s so greedy! He will be back Spencer 🤨

Thank you so much Carole. I know he will return! It might be time to give him a flying lesson!!

I can so identify with this! A super piece commemorating an epic battle!

Thank you Seok.

Just seen this, it's a great snail Spencer! I use copper tape on my pots and have had a hosta for years which has escaped being eaten! And my garden is a very slug and snaily one!

Thank you so much Sarah. I also use the copper tape and sheeps wool pellets around the Hosta plants but they still manage to find a way.

Beautiful

Thank you Romila.
