Grrrrrr ... I looked out the window this morning and saw these rooting around my hollyhocks ... hollyhocks that I've waited 12 months to see bloom. And I planted a new baby plant to the right ... a new variety for me, alcea rosea nigra, and it appears to be completely smashed. I went out and yelled at them like a wild woman. If they touch any more of those hollyhocks ... are they a protected species?? Is turtle stew any good? Hmmmph!

And neither of these are the same turtle that I posted a pic of earlier ... quite a bit smaller. I had some critter steal all the tulips out of one bed ... well not all, he left two which looked completely stupid ... and deer munched on the yew but an attack by turtles????? What's the world coming to?! LOL ...
