Gardening

I recently saw a plant moving around in an herb garden. There was no wind or rain. Only one plant in a group of similar plants was moving. I couldn't see a rodent or an armadillo. Then, as I looked closer, I realized that some creature was eating the roots! The whole plant was shaking.

My mom had entire plants consumed from below in her garden.

Deer usually don't pull up the plant by the roots. Bunnies & rodents gnaw and nibble but leave the roots.

However, It could be people. They steal plants from local botanical gardens & suburban landscapes and also potted plants from front porches in my area.
