Do you have deer in the area? Sounds like it! Until you can determine just what's feeding on your shrubs you may want to cage them to keep them safe. Just make cylinders out of chicken wire to place over your shrubs. Be sure to anchor them down well and fold over the top to protect the entire shrub. Good luck with your landscape!
