Peeper,

Several things:
1. Try spraying some of the deer spray (I buy the one from Home Depot) that smells like coyote urine. I live in Lakeway and we're OVERRUN with deer! I have never had them eat anything unless I forgot to spray after a rain, and I stopped spraying after a year. I think they just avoid me now...smart deer? ha

2. When I moved here , I was told that for color, you could only plant lantana, rosemary (not much color!) and the Copper Canyon daisies. But now I have people stopping and asking what certain plants are bc they were told the same and then see mine. Here are pictures of the front (the part exposed to the deer...like your house). If you see any plants you don't know, just let me know.
