Pansies – Not Deer Resistant
Q: Are pansies deer resistant?
A: They are not. Numerous homeowners have described to me deer that walk along a bed and pull the plants out of the soil with their teeth. You can try using one of the sprayable, scent-based repellents or the systemic Repellex. I have homeowner comments about their Repellex experiences at http://www.walterreeves.com/gardening-q-and-a/repellex-effectiveness/ and I’d love to hear how it works for you.
