There are few worse feelings than discovering deer have been munching on your plants. You wish they would feed elsewhere and have tried scarecrows and motion-activated lights with some success.

Growing deer-resistant plants is another way to safeguard your garden from pesky pests who want to enjoy it as a snack. TN Nursery offers the top options for keeping deer away from your yard.

Why Deer Pose a Problem in Your Yard

Deer may look docile, but they're hungry and will chew through your garden, erasing all your months of hard work. They will also eat through agricultural crops and wreck your landscaping, so you need a plan to detract them.

Keep Deer Out with These Plants

Here are TN Nursery's top plants deer will avoid.

Cinnamon Fern

The deciduous cinnamon fern is named after the color of its leaves and has nothing to do with its taste or texture. Nevertheless, deer tend to avoid it and many other ferns, including royal, fiddlehead, and Christmas ferns.

Besides deer, slugs, wasps, spiders, fruit flies, ants, cockroaches, and mosquitoes aren't big fans of this fern, giving you all the more reason to grow it. Shop TN Nursery's selection of cinnamon fern today.

Reindeer Moss

Deer generally avoid lichens and moss, making reindeer moss an optimal choice for your backyard. You can cover large swaths of the area with it. Named after the animal that eats it in subarctic conditions, reindeer moss has a fascinating texture and doesn't require much water.

Running Bamboo

Finally, here’s a plant you can admire without worrying about the deer getting to it. Running bamboo is an incredible grower, providing thick density that creates a beautiful, Asian-inspired ornamental style around your yard. You’ll also love the additional privacy, even if you don’t have high fences.

Running bamboo will develop quickly, and it can withstand different levels of sunlight as well as various types of soil. No matter the current landscape of your yard, you should be able to grow this plant.

Witch Hazel

Long regarded for its medicinal properties, witch hazel serves another excellent purpose: keeping deer away. The animals don't like its sap, leaf texture, and smell, so they'll give it - and thus your garden - a wide berth.
