busy lizzies

[tjhsusu]

For the first time ever my busy lizzies have been eaten. They are in borders 20metres apart and also in containers on the wall.

the complete flowers and leaves are taken, leaving only the stalks.
no other plants are touched

I know it’s a little late but, did you find any caterpillars on them? I’ve never had a problem either, but this summer we had bunches of caterpillars on some Cal poppies and when they were through with those they stripped the Impatiens too!
