In mid-July, my hydrangea was a picture of beauty. It was the first time I had ever seen so many blooms. The lilies were full of buds and I eagerly anticipated their colorful arrival. The tiger lilies had already started to make their appearance.
Then one morning I went outside to admire my flowers and they were all gone. Half of the hydrangea bush was eaten, and every lily was chewed to the ground. I chalked it up to living in New England among the deer until I drove around town. That’s when I noticed that not everyone’s flowers get eaten. Some tiger lilies on the side of the highway don’t even get eaten, but mine do. No one takes care of those flowers. They should be a breakfast buffet for those beastly deer! But no, they come to my garden and eat my summer beauty that I lovingly sprinkle with garlic and hot pepper to thwart them. I don’t get it, maybe they like seasoning?!
With the warm weather we have been having lately, I have been out in the yard with the kids a lot. Some of my plants are still growing and some are still being eaten. Just the other day my hydrangea was attacked again; it was just starting to fill out too. They got the lily greens again and the azalea (weird). Oh yeah and the mums I had just bought! My neighbors have their mums, all pretty, and they aren’t dinner for wild animals! Why do the deer like mine so much?
