This has been deer feeding week here and it's so depressing. They devoured all but three daylily flowers where there should be hundreds of blossoms right now. That's just in one garden. Others have suffered tremendous losses as well. Then I saw they ate some buds from the Oriental lily collection and to my great horror they devoured every bud on 20 or 24 Stargazer lilies so I cut the other four stems and have them inside.

I guess the old quote is as true of weeds as it is of critters:

Nature bats last.

Silly but I'm grateful they left me Savannah's Edge - it's so pretty!
