Darn Deer

[Indiana Karen]

I love seeing the deer around the yard, but they are sure hard on hostas and sedums. :'(
It helps to grate Irish Spring Soap around the plants, but sometimes after a rain (and we've been having lots of rain) I forget.
The new burning bushes I planted last year look just as bad.  Good thing they don't like everything!!!

Oh dear!  I know not funny....Looks like the deer do a better job of trim than my gardener

I feel your pain. They haven't got mine yet, but they will. I'm trying to enjoy them now, knowing they'll get eaten soon.

It's times like that when you feel like Venison for dinner.

Sorry about the damage.

I've not seen deer close to the house...but the cottontails are eating what few flowers I did have this year.  I looked out the back door this morning and saw 7 without really trying.   :'(  :'(  :'(

I WISH we had deer and cottontails.
The locals eat them. :*(

My problem is that during the winter the deer eat the Azalea tops, then come spring I have no flowers. My most favorite one barely had a thing on it this year. That's o.k. I guess I help to fatten them up. Don't eat much beef around here it's all Venison.

Looks like my garden before I started using the spray called 'deer fence'.
It really works! You lightly mist it about 2x a week.
