I am looking for deer resistant plants for shade, large ones.I spent some time on Google and didn't find many big ones.
This plant appealed to me.Dicentra Gold Heart.
I also like Heuchera Palace Purple.
This is a combo of the plants there now with the exception of the Hosta( which might not happen) and heuchera.
The only drawback I can see is Dicentra is a summer dormant plant. I have no idea what this means unless it only refers to no flowers.
