During the night is meal time for slugs [Gastropoda] since they're nocturnal feeders. Slugs tend to be environmentally friendly in the sense that their favorite foods are dead leaves, decaying plant materials, and fungi. But there are some slugs such as the Portuguese slug [Arion lusitanicus] that prefer the fresh, moist body parts of living plants.

Most slugs will eat plants, fungus, decaying vegetable material.. but some are even predators (somehow!). I have heard cucumbers are popular with slugs.

No, slugs are generally found in moist, damp environments. Wild delphinium flowers grow in meadows and meadows are not a suitable environment nor are they damp and moist enough for slugs to thrive in.
Slugs can eat parsley. Slugs can eat anything, even if it kills it.
They eat leaves, stems, flowers and fruits close to the ground like strawberries, tomatoes and artichokes.
I don't know all the plants that slugs eat, but in my garden they eat the petals on Marguerite daisies and shasta daisies. They eat the leaves on Fox Glove and the leaves on Hostas. Also I have seen them in my Icelandic Poppies and the Rudebeckia (Black Eyed Susan leaves)....I think they are also eating my Purple Coneflower leaves, they seem like they have holes in them. There favorite definitely is the daisy petals. I picked off about 12 slugs off of one daisy plant. Also saw them on my coreopsis. Slimy little suckers!!
