| Last year, I planted two aster. Someone kept digging it up. Poor guy never bloomed. This year, it came up and someone digs it up and tear it to pieces. I wonder. Why Aster?

| I have that problem with different plants, and my guess is the culprit is a squirrel. Probably buried something in that spot where the plant is growing at one time and keeps digging there trying to find whatever they buried. Karen |

| It does sound like it could be either squirrels or raccoons. Squirrels can be shockingly destructive little pests, more so than I ever would have imagined. |

| Chickens love to dig freshly planted plants up. |

| Here I can not use any blood meal or fish emulsion fertilizers as the racoons are sure to dig it up. Squirrels will dig I think mostly out of curiosity. Al |
