Thank you so much for this info the deers constantly turn my garden in a salad bowl😢

I’ve found Brunnera and Ligularia also to be truly deer resistant. I replaced most of my hosta with Brunnera and the Ligularia works well in a moist location.

Thank you for sharing this with us. I'm going to have to get some of these❤

[@PlantDoHomeGarden]

That's a great tip! Brunnera and Ligularia are excellent choices for gardens where deer are a concern. It's fantastic to hear that they've worked well for you as deer-resistant alternatives to hostas. Brunnera is known for its beautiful foliage and delicate blue flowers, making it an attractive shade option, while Ligularia thrives in moist areas with its striking leaves and yellow flower spikes. Your experience provides valuable insight for other gardeners looking to maintain beautiful gardens in deer-prone areas. Thanks for sharing! 🌿🦌

Are Brunnera and Ligularia resistant to snails? Do they eat them like hostas?

[@maureenmckenna5220]

Everything mentioned is right on. Deer will not eat these plants. I would also add yarrow, which comes in a wide variety of colors and sizes. Drought tolerant.

[@judyingram-kh1vm]

Oh yes yarrow, I absolutely it. I'm going to try to get the peach yarrow or it may be more pink. Also they have the yellowish one. I have the dirty white that grows wild in my field and deer never bother it. I'm going to dig me some of that up also. I'll keep it contained. Thank you for sharing this with us. ❤😊

Thank you for sharing all the deer resistant plants and flowers.The deer think my flowers garden's was planted for them. They are getting worse and worse every year.

[@PlantDoHomeGarden]

You're welcome! It sounds like the deer have really taken a liking to your garden, which can certainly be frustrating. Using deer-resistant plants is a smart strategy to help deter them and protect your beautiful garden spaces. Plants with strong scents, such as lavender, sage, and marigolds, or those with prickly textures, can be less appealing to deer and might help keep them at bay. Additionally, consider incorporating physical barriers like fencing or using deer repellents as another layer of protection. Combining these methods can often provide the best results in keeping your garden flourishing without becoming a feast for the local wildlife. If you need more suggestions or help with specific plants or strategies to deter deer, feel free to ask. Here's to a thriving, deer-resistant garden! 🌿🦌

@@PlantDoHomeGardendeers in my area become resistant to repellents, even the strongest ones! Lavender, sage and fencing also doesn’t seem to make much difference. I planted rose next to lavender and russian sage, they still manage the destruction of my rose! They will eat double take scarlet even though it supposed to be deer resistant. They even ate blooming azalia’s ! Gosh, I truly am furious!

Thank you so much for this info the deers constantly turn my garden in a salad bowl😢iv also learned that cayenne pepper works to deter deers

[@Anonymously4051]

Using Cayenne pepper is cruel, it can cause blindness. Adapt to plants they don’t like and keep your spices in the kitchen.

[@uppercreekstudios3669]

The deer munch on my Astilbe quite often.

[@jmae8957]

You should have added which.plants are sun loving or shade loving to your description!

[@Anonymously4051]

Deers eat astilbe, tickseed, bee balm and coral bells to the ground in this region.

[@susantempleton5882]

Columbine is a first choice for deer in my area.

[@judyingram-kh1vm]

Thank you for sharing this with us. Great video❤

[@PlantDoHomeGarden]

Thanks for watching! ❤

[@audreysweeney5338]

Thanks so much!

[@maryenglish9314]

Our deer ate my shade loving Coral Bells to the nub. I planted 9 (3 different colors each) at 25 dollars a piece. Decimated!!! 😢.

[@chaconne0488]

Deer don't like cloves :)))

[@PlantDoHomeGarden]

Oh, that's a great tip! 🌿 You're absolutely right - cloves are not a favorite on the deer menu. Their strong scent and flavor tend to keep those four-legged garden visitors at bay. It's always fantastic when gardeners share their personal experiences and tricks. Have you had success using cloves in your garden to deter deer? Some folks plant clove-scented plants, while others use clove oil as a natural repellent.

[@chaconne0488]

@PlantDoHomeGarden I haven't tried oils because I only found out this year that deer are biting my roses. I spotted her at dawn. I watched what roses he ate and the ones surrounded by carnations were untouched, while the rest were eaten equally. Lavender had a similar effect. I now have several lists: plants that grow on poor soils, plants that are not eaten by snails, non-invasive plants, and another list of plants that are not eaten by deer :))) Best regards!

[@julleanjones7030]

Deer will not ingest cayenne pepper due to their high sense of smell thank God for that

[@Anonymously4051]

Cayenne pepper can blind creatures and harm insects too. Keep spices in the kitchen, read more and learn. People can be so ignorant and harmful to nature due to their ignorance
