Quick answer: No plant is completely deer-proof. Browsing pressure varies, but homeowners can reduce risk by favoring less-palatable plants and avoiding a landscape built entirely from known favorites.
Expect variability
Deer preferences can change with season, food availability and local herd behavior.
Protect new plantings
Young plants may need temporary protection even if mature plants are usually less attractive to deer.
Use variety
Mixing plant types can reduce the chance that one browsing event damages the entire design.
