FRIENDLY DEER

Living on the edge of the wood provides a gardening challenge.  Hungry deer come to the bird feeder and then on to the garden.

Tried Ringer's deer repellant this year.  It worked for a while but now the hosta have been devoured the last few days.  I put out corn and apples in the back wood to keep them down there but they still come up to the bird feeder and to eat the yews. 
The best defense is to plant deer resistant plants in your garden.  Juniper instead of yews, peonies and
lavender instead of geraniums although perennial geraniums are deer and rabbit resistant.
Today I am trying 1 egg, crushed garlic clove and 1 teaspoon milk mixed in quart of water to spray on the eaten hosta.  We'll see how this works.  Click on the pencil in the lower right corner to leave a message about how you stop the deer from eating the garden.
