something's eating my lilies

18 years ago

This summer I have noticed several holes in my yard, I don't see tunneled areas since the holes go up under my deck and the shed. However, these holes have eaten my asiatic lilies from the root up. The entire plant is GONE! the rest of my plants are intact. Can't say that the dog has noticed any critters either. Does anyone have any idea what I might be dealing with?

Thanks for your help.

I think the rabbits ate the buds off mine this year. One day I seen buds and the next day they were gone! Maybe you have rabbits. I do!
