You know when you say to yourself that you should pick that lettuce and then you say--umm I can do that tomorrow. One should rethink that because the deer may get to it before you do and that is what happened to me. I had a large pot of lettuce on the patio just read to be harvested and the deer took advantage of it. When will I learn. Well at least I have lettuce in the raised bed and they can't get to that.
Unfortunately that's the fact of life here - nothing on the patio is safe. Only garden is semi-safe with a very tall fence. But if they really want to reach something it won't stop them from leaping right over it.
ReplyDeleteYep--Darn deer.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe they come so close to the house to eat off the patio, but I hear of it all the time.
ReplyDeleteI had one at the front door that was eating my potted impatients.
