DEER RESISTANT PLANTS (**NOT DEER PROOF**)

Deer are known to be a common problem for gardeners in Southeast Texas as they often feed on a variety of plants. However, there are some plants that deer are less likely to eat. Here are some deer-resistant plants that may work well in Southeast Texas:

Society garlic

Lantana

Salvia

Rosemary

Boxwood

Mexican bush sage

Purple coneflower

• It's important to keep in mind that while these plants are generally less attractive to deer, there is no guarantee that deer will not eat them if they are hungry enough or if other food sources are scarce. It's also a good idea to use other deer deterrents such as fencing, motion-activated sprinklers, or deer-resistant sprays to protect your garden.
