Deer Resistant Plants and Flowers to Grow in your Garden

Deer are selective feeders, so often plants that would normally become fodder can be used in your garden if there is a more tempting morsel nearby. An alternate food source can be planted away from your garden if necessary. This, however is no guarantee... just a thought of how you might be able to help the critters at the same time as protecting your shrubs.
There are dozens of different type repellants that are sometimes successful as well, which can be used in defined areas. They include some that are tacky, distasteful and sometimes downright rude. I'm sure many of these items are readily available at your local nursery, but as to the others.....
Any repellant can become ineffective in a short time when the deer realize that they have nothing to fear, so these may become more trouble than they are worth.
While there are no plants that are deer proof, there are many that are far less prone to attract deer. They tend to dislike plants which are thorny, poisonous, sticky, or with cottony leaves, or plants that just taste bad
Droughts and other extreme weather conditions can create a serious food shortage for deer, and consequently cause them to lose their inhibitions and eat plants which they would otherwise ignore.

Deer repellants

  • Nylon stocking with human hair inside
  • Hanging mirrors/ tinfoil strips
  • Human urine, predator urine or droppings
  • Deodorant soap
  • Dried blood bloodmeal in a cloth bag
  • Milorganite
  • Commercial products
