Deer-resistant list
No plant is deer proof. In the last few winters we have them seen eat things normally left alone. But this list is a good guide as to what deer don't like and you should have good success.

Want to plant what you want where you want?
Good Earth recommends two deer repellant products that have worked very well for us personally and professionally
Liquid Fence is a ready-to-use spray that can be applied to any plant except edible herbs and veggies. It will not wash off in rain and can last up to 30 days.
This product has a very strong odor when first applied, but this dissipates within 24 hours. We recommend applying this product in the evening.
