If the deer are your particular gardening problem,
we understand that they seem to be deterred by
anything in which their hooves may get tangled. A
folded piece of chicken wire around the edge of your
property or garden may keep them from walking in.
Certain substances that say ‘humans are here’ to
them, like soap or human hair, also may help. Pepper
spray has also been helpful to some, but has to
be reapplied after rains. One of our customers found
where the deer were entering their property and set
up a light censor and radio to an electrical cord so
when the deer got close, a light and the radio came
on. After a year, this is still working! Please share
your solutions so we can pass on the suggestions!

T. ‘Sugar Love’
The pink colors of T.
‘Sugar Love’ and
Hyacinthus ‘Pink
Festival’ blend
beautifully and the
brilliant white of N.
‘Thalia’ contrasts
just enough to make
it eye-catching. But
the different textures
of all three
flowers together is
what really makes
this garden vignette
interesting.
