Hi,
Since most of the lower leaves are gone, that must be a critter - probably rabbit if they are around. The leaves with holes are another culprit - the type made indicative of caterpillars or slugs. I'm inclined to think caterpillar since they are higher up on the plant. Tho, when hungry enough, slugs and snails will climb! :)

2 not very good photos! All lower leaves and parts of stem eaten and only a handful of munched leaves at top left. Hope this works.

Hi, Susie,
Can you post a photo? Seeing the type of damage would help determine who is munching.

I planted a newly bought 3 feet high Moroccan Broom in my sunny garden 3 weeks ago and all the leaves have been munched apart from a handful at the top of it. I have been spraying it with insecticide but it doesnt seem to have stopped the munching. Help!

Hi, Brenda,
If you log in here on Shoot and then add this plant to your 'Plants I Have' list, you will get detailed info and a video on how to take semi-hardwood cuttings.
All the best,

Hi Barry,
Cytisus battandieri doesn't tend to need much pruning, but a light tidying up immediately after flowering will result in a bushy, healthy tree.
Hope this helps - don't forget to add to your 'plants I have' list to receive regular care updates: Cytisus battandieri.
Regards
Katy
