In my carden they don't even last long enough to grow, something eats them and it's not snails or slugs. Back before I started feeding birds I experimented by completely surrounding one or two plants with slug pellets, no gaps it was like a little blue wall, they still got eaten.
Now this is strange, the flowers are rather aromatic and I can´t imagine a pest that would eat it! You could try to place there some sticky paper to catch the culprit...I am really at a loss.
I bet it's beetles. I have a little tree that's been munched nearly bare. Twice I saw inconspicuous beetles eating it, but they flew away when I went to grab them.
Those colors are fabulous, as is the contrasts with all the different textures. If you were so inclined, I think this would be a wonderful image to print on the front of a greeting card.

I'm starting to find other methods of slug control that seem to work on the allotment and don't involve slug pellets.
My lettuces are looking fine.
