Couls this be mice. Is this plant more prone to attack than others.

I would not put mice anywhere near the top of the list for this, they are
not generally into leaves, stems etc. Any signs of grubs or other
invertebrate munchers, any droppings (look REALLY carefully they have great
camouflage)? The restriction to the bottom 6in is puzzling. How about a
