Deer Resistant Plant List
From recent personal experience, I have decided not to prepare gourmet meals for the deer population.... After research, these plants are categorized according to the damage they receive. I hope this is as big a help to you as it has been for me in my attempt to create a lovely landscaping project out in the country.
