Blandy Farm: Deer-Resistance Plants

Remember, no one has told the deer about this list, and the deer typically try something before they decide they no longer want to eat it. They also don't report their experience on Yelp, so every deer may want to try your deer-resistant plant, and maybe once a year. Expect damage.






White-tailed deer are responsible for a great deal of landscape destruction.  Using landscape plants NOT preferred by deer is one way to prevent or at least lessen damage.  The plants deer prefer to eat vary from region to region and change seasonally.  No plant is completely deer proof.
