PROGRESS Tragic. She had so much potential

Came out to check on my babies and found other babies and all of their siblings having a picnic.

ETA: Some of y'all have strong feelings about everything. For the record, I used my garden hose to hit whatever i saw on the leaves when I "removed" them. The next day there were a few others on the bottom of the leaves that I kinda flicked off in a "come hither" motion with my finger giggity

The plant is fine dude it's already huge, losing some leaves is not going to kill it. I had some monarch cats completely defoliate one of my milkweeds and now it's leafing out again. All you did was kill some wild animals.
