Make sure you protect your garden with these deer-resistant plants!
While deer are definitely adorable, they can be true menaces for any garden. And if you care a lot for your landscaping and plants and these animals end up eating them more often than not, we have some great and some bad news for YOU.
The bad news is that there are no plants that are entirely deer-proof since they are resilient animals. If they are going through a drought or a harsh winter, they will give any bush they see a try before realizing they do not like it.
However, the great news is that no matter what zone you are located in, from the iciest parts of Zone 1 all the way to the south of Zone 10, there is a wide variety of plants that will deter deer from coming to your yard!
They can be either bushes, plants, evergreen foliage, or trees that can have this effect, and be it that they have a strong scent, hairy branches, or spinny leaves, they will make deer think twice before coming to your yard to feast on your carefully cared for plants!
Depending on what zone you are in, the plants will differ, but we guarantee that they are easy to care for and they are going to work!
We have talked with master gardeners and horticulturists and brought you the best deer-resistant plants on the market! Keep on reading to discover them!

The iris mentioned as deer-resistant: Does this include the tall bearded irises? The last 2 years deer have eaten the buds off the stalk…..never bothered them until lately.
