Anyone have any clues as to what is eatin' my gazanias?
They're the multi-colored daisy-like annuals; I have 4 plants and every last one of them is being chewed on. I wonder if cats like them as we have one that is here often. Or opposums? Bugs?

1. Holy cow. Something eats gazanias?
I've never had insect or critter damage in mine, and I've grown them outside of the fence for years.

2. Probably those cute little bunnies
I watched one nibble on some gazanias I had a couple of years ago at my old house. Every evening, there it was. Having a nice little snack. Last year I didn't have problems. I'm going to start some more this year so we'll see if they turn out to be bunny food or not.

3. What's strange is there are no bunnies around here; maybe too
many snakes? I live in suburbia, but have yet to see a rabbit here in about 15 years.
