    Slugs or snails are the most likely candidate I think, obviously the Chrysanthemums are tastier than the slug pellets.

    One of my precious tree lupin seedlings was reduced to a bare stalk. I had not renewed the slug pellets… I did so and the following morning there were several dead black slugs.. Never seen that kind before.
