Horticana: Deer-Resistant Perennials

Oh Deer! Here's a solution to the deer eating your beautiful blooms. We have created a special collection of easy to grow perennials that the deer do not find particularly yummy. Plant these perennials in your gardens, borders and containers and enjoy a summer filled with blooms year after year.

When planting: place the bare roots in singles and allow space for them to mature into large clumps. These low- maintenance perennials are hardy, so they can stay in the ground and large containers year-round. These varieties are shipped as dormant bare root perennials and bulbs. Once you receive your collection you can start your bare root plants in pots on a warm windowsill, then you will have lush plants ready when you are. You can also plant these roots directly in the ground once the soil is warm and workable. They can be stored in a cool dark location (between 2-8 Celsius or 35-45 Fahrenheit) for 2-3 weeks.
