What is the definition of deer and rabbit resistant plants?
Our deer and rabbit resistant designation means that the plants are less likely to be eaten, not that they never will. Wildlife browsing habits change from region to region and season to season. Environmental conditions such as droughts, fires or development can have dramatic and unpredictable effects on wildlife feeding habits. Animals are more likely to eat tender new growth. Younger animals are more likely to taste a new plant in a garden than mature animals. Sometimes they will eat the plants to the ground and never touch them again. Consider protecting new growth and transplants until established. We recommend spraying with Deer Off to help protect plants in your garden.
