Hi All,

The few onions that managed to make it through the winter
were going strong, then suddenly it is like something cut off
the leaves, except for the scapes which were all in tact.

Seems to me a "critter" would have eaten the whole thing.

What is going on?

Many thanks,

Around here, I would suspect rabbits.

Do they eat the whole leaf or just the top half?

They nibble until they get a mouth full and then move on to the next
part of the plant.

That would explain the half eaten

That is exactly what the cotton tails do to my wife's flowers!
