What can I plant that the deer won't eat?
Well - sometimes it seems like almost nothing - especially in cold sparse months like February. Hungry enough, they may sample just about everything in our landscaping. Aside from suggesting use of all the products available today to assist in this never ending battle, I try and help suggest plants that the deer may not particularly like on their buffet. Attached is a web link for a listing I feel will be a helpful guide in choosing plants. It actually rates the severity of damage on groupings from trees, shrubs, perennials, annuals and more.
SPRING IS AROUND THE CORNER!!!
