I planted bunches of little violas all over in various beds early this spring. They thrived for a couple of months, but now, all of the bi-colored ones are dying off one by one, from the outside of the clump in. (I don't know what variety they are, but they're white with blue-purple rimmed petals.) thye're just kind of wasting away.

The funny thing is, the ones that are a solid color - either blue, or white, or purple - seem to be doing fine. I'm keeping all watered - in fact, we've been getting tons of rain - and feeding with Miracle Grow's Bloom Booster weekly.

The only thing that I can figure is that I put Farmer MacGregor's snail and slug deterrant down a month ago. But why would it kill only some of the violas?
