Hi ladies.
I have planted many double impaients in pots and have them in a shady/filtered sun location under our Maple trees.
This morning many of my flowers have been eaten by something.
I thought earlier this spring there was a conversation on this forum about various deterrents to use to keep the animals away.
I have no idea what is eating them.
My TSV Planter Box with the shelf below was essentially cleaned out.
Did someone mention a product called Pesky...something???
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Probably rabbits. Not sure what to recommend. Good luck.

The only thing I have found to work on keeping rabbits and other animals from my hostas:
PLANTSKYDD which can be found at lawn and garden centers. It ran about $19/bottle. You must rinse out the hand held sprayer when done or it will dry and become clogged. No bad smells...the color should disappear after a rain.
Good Luck.

Thank-you for the replies all!
Yes it was the PlantskyDD I that I was trying to remember from a previous thread. I am going to get some asap!
Sadly my flowers had only been planted a couple of weeks, due to our cold spring here in the midwest.
Thanks again !

After at least a dozen years of planting Sunpatiens, the deer started eating them a couple of years ago. I'd read that deer won't bother plants if they encounter a barrier, so I bought some mini tomato cages from Amazon and put one around each plant. It's worked so far. 🤞🏻 🤞🏻 🤞🏻

Yes. For me, at this time of year, it's the rabbits. They eat all the new spring growth.
