do deer eat fuschia?
Comments (3)It depends on the variety of fuschia. If you find a fuschia that has a woody stalk and small blossoms, it is likely deer resistant. The beautiful fuschias with the large blossoms are soft stemmed and the deer will devour them. Good luck on your hunt! Amy...See MoreDo deer eat gardenias
Comments (5)Hi, I live in a deer infested area and they have sampled many of my plants, but left the gardenias alone. I have 3 types and no problems. I use 2 products that work very well, fish emulsion which is a fertilizer and Plantskydd. Deer are very sensitive to smell and the strong smell of fish based fertilizer keeps your plants untouched. Plantskyd I had to order online and as disgusting as it sounds because it is made out of dried pigs blood, it has become indispensable to me. It has an added benefit of having an iron component, so that when you spray your plants, it greens up the leaves. Good luck!...See MoreDo deer eat Ti plants?
Comments (4)Lantana are supposed to be deer resistant but they sure ate all of mine down to the ground. I imagine Ti Leaf would be a delicious treat for them....See MoreWhat do your deer NOT eat?
Comments (5)They avoid aromatics--some of which are known for beautiful flowers as well (lavender, and rosemary where hardy), you can always plant the hardy cactus which are covered in beautiful yellow lowers in June. Other flowers that are same are bleeding heart, columbines, day lilies, daffodils, iris, lungwort and rhododendros. There are lots actually. But sometimes I will find things damaged that they are not supposed to touch (but may not always just be deer!) Flowers to protect from deer--azaleas, hibiscus, camellia, roses, hydrangea, HOSTA. Mine seem to love Euonymus japonica best of all.--I give p on that one. Would move them into the house but the deer would only be breaking into the house to eat them!...See Moreozzysboy
