We hope you are enjoying your summer. We've had great beach weather for summer fun and great rain to make our gardens continue to look lovely . We are getting lots of customers coming in who are looking for the magic plants which deer will not eat. The list is short but this is what we recommend for severe deer problems. The following we have never seen attacked by deer nor gotten a report of being eaten. Boxwood. This is the number one plant to use if you have obstreperous deer. I have never known deer to eat this plant...... not even one bite! Nepeta Lilac Douglas Fir Rose of Sharon Pear Mugo Pine Forsythia Monkshood Aconitum Anemone Astilbe Monarda Rudbeckia Echinacea Geranium Helleborus Peony Juniper Barberry Liriope So if you are really frustrated, give any of the above a try! These are plants which are safe MOST OF THE TIME! Amelanchier Smoketree Witchhazel Spirea Butterfly Bush Allium Blue Spruce Digitalis Ferns Coreopsis Potentilla Birch Beech PG Hydrangea |

How 'bout those Japanese Beetles. Couldn't you just strangle their little necks? Or drop them into a bowl of soapy water, or spray them with Sevin or Orthenex, or put up a Japanese Beetle Trap (far, far away from your plants..... like.... give the trap to your neighbor for a present.) A dead beetle is a good beetle, no matter how you go about it. Daylilies are a delight in the August garden. Try our huge bright orange Rocket City, or the beautiful pink Hush Little Baby, or the magnificent bright red Chicago Apache, or the reblooming white Ice Carnival or any of the over 30 varieties here at the nursery. They're great! Come stroll through our Children's Garden. It's cute and fun! Click here to see the Children's Garden. Do you know what poison ivy looks like? You should know for your own defense.
