Deer Candy


Four years ago we planted 3 Oak Leaf Hydrangeas along the fence in the front yard. Our plan was to add flowers in the summer and bright leaf color in the fall. We were surprised to find the deer loved this plant. We never saw any flowers and the fall color was missing because the deer ate the plant back to bare stems. We gave up on the front yard and moved what was left of the plants to the back yard inside the fence. After 2 years the Hydrangeas are finally coming back with some flowers and bright green leaves. We are looking forward to the fall to see if the fall colors love upto the hype we were expecting.
