Stargazer Lilies

kathleen howard asked 14 years ago

I have a lovely strong plant of stargazer lily just coming into flower now and notice the leaves are being destroyed by some insect or other.There are rust marks on the leaves and holes also!On closer inspection there is a kind of mushy black substance clinging to the leaves looks like a squashed bug of sorts!Do you know what it is and what I can do to eradicate it please?

This sounds like a snail is feeding at night and hiding by day. If you can find its hiding place near the plant or pot and remove it. The black substance are its droppings.
