Deer Resistant Foliage and Flower Combo

This deer resistant low maintenance planting scheme is a nice balance of easy care blooms with all-season evergreen structure. Geranium 'Rozanne' delivers a steady stream of reliable blooms spring to late summer; in high summer Bupleurum fruticosum's dill-like blooms echo the golden foliage of Chamaecyparis 'Vintage Gold' and Japanese forest grass. Winter structure and color is carried by the golden yellow conifer and chartreuse yellow blooms of Helleborus argutifolius.
