deer proof plants

The best way to protect your garden beds from hungry deer is to plant deer resistant plants.
White Flower Farms and Wayside Gardens has a large selection of deer proof annuals and perennials.
Deer and rabbits hate daffodils and several other spring bulbs.  Forget about tulips in this area.  The deer, rabbits, and woodchucks love them.  If you plant hosta, you will need to deer proof these with Connies egg milk pepper & garlic mixture posted earlier on this site.  You might also spray your yews now with that to prevent winter munching.  The deer are pretty hungry right now with the snow cover.
