I don't think it's mice, it seems to be just the lower leaves that are
getting very kind of frilled and chomped. As they are starting to get away,
the upper leaves are fine. I grew them in paper pots and just planted them
in them.


Slugs and snails. In this wet year, they have done that to a huge
number of my plants. You need a resident hedgehog.
