Very strange; anyone have any idea about what could have caused this?


likely suspects here would be deer, rabbits or
groundhogs. check the surrounding area for deer tracks.

young deer can sample things not knowing if they are
edible or not. this is common happening here on various
plants.

even plants reputed to not be deer friendly have been
sampled to death.

wish i could fence the whole area off as that would
save so much damage, but Mom won't let me do it yet...
