Product Details
Deer won't bother with this garden, but you'll love its long season of flowers and varied foliage forms and colors: from May through September, the plants in our Deer-Resistant Garden for Sun provide a spectrum of harmonious blooms in shades of blue, rose, yellow, and white, offset by the greens, burgundy, and silvers of foliage. The tawny spikes of Feather Reed Grass (Calamagrostis 'Karl Foerster,' 5–6′ tall) carry the show through fall and into winter.

Shipping
HOW PLANTS ARE SHIPPED
The size of the plants we ship has been selected to reduce the shock of transplanting. For some, this means a large, bareroot crown. Others cannot travel bareroot or transplant best if grown in containers. We ship these perennials and annuals in 1 pint pots, except as noted. We must point out that many perennials will not bloom the first year after planting, but will the following year, amply rewarding your patience. We ship bulbs as dormant, bare bulbs, sometimes with some wood shavings or moss. Shrubs, Roses, vines, and other woody plants may be shipped bareroot or in pots. The size of the pot is noted in the quick facts for each item.
WHEN WE SHIP
We ship our bulbs and plants at the right time for planting in your area, except as noted, with orders dispatched on a first-come, first-served basis by climate zone. We also ship a wide range of containers and planters, tools, supplies, fertilizers, garden wear, garden decor items, as well as indoor decorations like wreaths and dried bouquets when available. Estimated dates for shipping are indicated in the green Shipping Details box for each item. Please supply a street address for delivery.

Stunning success
Cecile from New Providence, NJ
I sprayed the new plants with anti-deer products a few times until they were established. Once I stopped, deer tasted the Echinacea and phlox once and didn't trouble it again.
Before planting I roto-tilled, enriched with compost & manure, put down newspaper and then mulch. I also put in drip irrigation on a timer and dead-headed very occasionally
Our house is on a hill and I built up 2 large dirt mounds (one for each pre-planned garden) between a new walkway and the house so the garden is very visible from the street, enhancing the garden's drama. Because of the steepness of the mounds I'll move a few plants around this year. The bee balm and amsonia fell down the slope. This year I'll get a large grow-through for each bee balm and I'll move the amsonia to a flatter location. All plants thrived.
