The plant material listed here is highly resistant to the deer that pass through your garden. Anyone who has a garden in a deer-infested area also knows that deer will eat almost anything at anytime, as long as they are hungry! The best way to stop deer damage is to have the right selection of plants, along with fencing and a regular program of deer repellants. One way to discourage deer from making their way to your favorite plants is to plant a buffer of the more deer resistant plants in front of the landscape.
