Luckily for you, there are a lot of plants that deer simply won’t eat. We call these plants ‘deer resistant’, be it because they’re bad-tasting or toxic.
Deadheading is an integral part of daffodil care after blooming. It brings your daffodil plant back to its original condition. More importantly, it is going to make the plant ready for next year’s bloom.
The main reason deer will stay away from a plant is toxicity! If a plant is poisonous, deer won’t eat it. Another reason deer will stay away from is taste – they prefer plants that taste good to them.
Deer repellants are very effective products. They work with scent and taste – the deer trying to hold a feast in your garden will smell it and it will likely turn around and leave.
Many plants that you find a place for in your garden may end up as food for a deer. If you want to avoid that, you should try planting only deer-resistant plants.
