Something or someone (hard to believe)–is beheading our sunflowers!
There are–or were–four of them self-seeded in the mint bed at the back outside the kitchen.
They made a pretty picture–yellow on green.
Our bees have been enjoying them too–not so far to fly, more like working from home.
Sharing the bed with mint and sage and a couple of tomato plants–also self-seeded.
Three are GONE–the entire flower face cut off, leaving almost no trace on the ground.
It happened overnight.
One plant is left. Will it survive the night?
Could it be a cow? Can’t be a dog? Is it a werewolf!?
Certainly a Midnight Rambler.
Who or what is the Mystery Muncher of St Martin?
(Meredith S Holmes proposes to put powder on the wall tiles tonight!)
