We live in an area where white-tail deer are prevelant - the south-eastern U.S.
The deer eat and damage a great many things that we plant.
Does anyone have suggestions about flowering, deer-resistant plants in south-eastern U.S.?What are some good flowing plants that are deer resistant (proof) in Georgia, USA?
I have a few plants that I have had success with in my own garden
sheffield daisy
ox eye daisy
dracena 'spike' green
yucca
agave
rosemary 'prostrate'
thyme lemon, lime, doones valley, silver
Lavender 'spanish', english, french

all are not flowering but together thay have great texture
I have also been using an excellent new deer repellant
from the I Must Garden Company
it does not smell like liquid fence
and deer do not like it
what do you have to lose? If it does not work you send it back with a reciept for a full refund.What are some good flowing plants that are deer resistant (proof) in Georgia, USA?
you could always plant the deerus-resistimus flower bush, it requires extra sunlight and a daily dose of bullshit
