The good news is that these won't die if it is just the tops that have gone: they may even branch out to make more growth at this time in the year.

Not sure what has caused this: it could be caterpillars if it is just the very ends that have gone

Muntjac deer at a guess  ;)  They are little blighters for picking off the tender growing shoots of stuff  ::)

A simple barrier of netting and canes will stop them.  It doesn't need to be that sturdy.  They just don't like pushing their noses into netting  :)

They are common urban residents now Balders  :lol: 

We have them on our site and many people get them visiting their gardens  :)
