Do Deer Eat Zinnias?

My local deer herd leaves my zinnias alone unless we've had an extended period of drought when wild food is scarce. They prefer blooms over the plants. Your deer may behave differently. By the way, rabbits will definitely eat zinnias.

Pam at Digging Visited My Garden

Pam Pennick at the Digging blog recently visited my garden. She posted a very kind and generous story, Deer-resistant Cottage Garden, about her visit. The Musician and I thoroughly enjoyed chatting with Pam and her father.

Thank you, Pam!

See the July 2010 Southern Living® Magazine

Not Tonight, Deer! written by Steve Bender (aka The Grumpy Gardener), is a story about my deer resistant garden. Be sure to pick up a July 2010 copy of Southern Living®!

Deer and rabbit resistance is based upon my personal experience in my garden. Resistance may vary in your garden, depending upon the animal population and food supply. In times of hunger, an animal will eat plants that it would otherwise leave alone.
