| Last year the deer didn't touch my bed of impatiens...but this year I awoke to find four decapitated!
These are varigated New Guinea and I was wondering if there's any chance of them surviving. The stem and bottom leaves are left...seems whoever it was just wanted the tasty flowers! Any hope? |

| Yes if they still have some leaves they will grow back. Just think of it as an over done pinching. :)Its just the wild. They were build to live through the experience of animals eating them. What doesnt kill us only makes us stronger. |
