Deer Resistant Plant Material
There has been extensive research compiled on deer resistant plant varieties, but the results are mixed. What is called deer resistant in one study is called deer food in another. It is also stated that no matter how resistant a plant can be in one location, in another, that plant may be devoured. In other words - deer will eat just about anything if it suits them. The following list may be used as a guideline for woody plants that are not generally favored by deer.
