I'm so glad my house is surrounded by other houses, though not very close. The deer don't venture this far 'inland'. I have a friend who 'fenced' her garden with ditchlilies on the side nearest the forest. Her theory was that the critters ate the ditchlilies when they got to the edge and stopped when their tummies were full. They didn't venture further into her garden.

Didn't hurt the ditchlilies either, they just kept right on growing. Big Grin



Hmmm... I was having a conversation the other day with someone on ways to deter deer. If only I could remember who it was. so I could share this idea!

I'm going to retire and live off of my savings. Not sure what I'll do that second week.
