I like early cascade, because they are such heavy producers; and with homegrown, any variety is better than storebought. (anybody know that song?? "Just two things that money can't buy, and that's true love and home-grown tomatoes.")

Bobert, early this year something totally ate my delphimiums. Overnight there was nothing left but a hole. Whatever it is likes daffs too, so I think that lets squirrels out.

(I have to say that shooting the squirrels is more humane than other ways of bringing them under control.)

Any ideas what might be gobbling bulbs like a hog in a gourmet deli?
