Last week at Heartwood I found that my best-yet garlic planting had
disappeared. When last seen in late November the tops were about ten
inches tall. Now, approximately 200 tops, roots, seed cloves--all
gone. Surviving were four green onions that had somehow propagated in
the same bed. Although heavy rains have obliterated evidence, under
strong suspicion are Odocoileus virginianus.
