Ack, the deer ate my nasturtiums [View all]

I try to stick to flowers that aren’t tasty, but do love my nasturtiums. Liquid Fence has kept them safe so far, but last night one of the neighborhood livestock apparently decided Liquid Fence is a fine seasoning and left me with nothing but stubble. I’ve switched to Deer Scram.
