Anyone put down plastic plants?
Seriously tho, most of those plants are pretty
tolerant; but alot depends on how hungry the deer get.
I've seen them eat just about everything but the kitchen sink.

Around here,if they are hungry they will eat everything with exception to some of the thorny plantsand even those,I have seen nibbled on.

Does anyone else spray plants or flowers?At some homes,I spray every month for some types of flowers.The deer are very smart too.One year I had a flowering plant in an urn.It was sprayed and get this.New buds on the plant that bloomed after I sprayed were eaten :hungry:while the sprayed flowers were not touched.:yield::hungry:
