    I spent time and money trying to make a nice front entrance.
    I love the way it looks insofar as the rocks along side of the house reminds me of a creek or at least that is why I did.

    I still have to figure out what other plants to keep the deer away. Any suggestions?

    I have planted new laurel as a continuing hedge at the front and needless to say the deer started at it.

    I did buy Bobbex and I am on my second bottle. I also bought cayenne pepper and sprayed around. They don't seem to bother with the mature bushes. The front was such a mixture of old trees, bushes etc so I wanted something that was all the same.

    Deer walk through plantings and nibble here and there, at what appeals. To stop this you need to enclose the planted area with effective fencing.

    Hi Miry,
    You have a nice garden. Here you will find a comprehensive list of deer resistant plants. I see you already have Daffodils and Hyacinths, but there are many more.
