Deer will eat anything if they are hungry. The plants you find that they do munch on often you should transplant to an area away from the house and other plants. Let them gorge on them until their bellies are full. Get a listing from your extension service. I could suggest a few plants but I am not sure what is native to your area. Some garden centers sell the repellent. |

Deer don't eat coneflowers, clematis, cranesbill, penstemon, anise hyssop, veronica(speedwell), dusty miller, butterfly bushes, marigolds, petunias, million bells, moss rose(portulaca), or geraniums, to name a few. |
