@stef I like the sound of that: "Do ya feel lucky, Slug? Well, do ya?"
I probably should have asked that of all the grape hyacinths that perished at my hand a couple weeks ago. 'Cause I was definitely feeling malevolent as I dug them out! 
In any case, Sluggo is now a dear friend of mine... There are sooooo many of the hungry creatures 'round these parts!

@softbutspiney Oh CC, i think the flowers look puny and the leaves just have the most awful flop to them, and they spread themselves like crazy - thus spreading the ugliness much too far and wide throughout one's yard. #anyplantyoudon'tlikeisaweed
I honestly don't like regular hyacinths all that much either, but at least the blooms are more structured and the leaves reasonably hardy and attractive. However, I did reserve the right to confine the one my MIL brought me to a pot.
