At the time of this writing (a week or so before you see it) it hadn’t gotten hot like normal summer yet, and our cabin wasn’t yet opened. In addition, I had nothing pressing on the work front, so these conditions provided plenty of time for continued yardening.
I sprayed all the pomegranate blossoms with Deer Out, and then I saw a deer eating on the tree, so I sprayed it again. Too bad I didn’t count the blossoms when I sprayed the first time, but I was more intent on thinning and spraying. So, I don’t know if the deer was eating leaves or blossoms. One of the reviews I read for Deer Out said that deer might try to eat something sprayed but wouldn’t return for more.
Then I sprayed the hollyhocks, which the deer hadn’t yet bothered this year.
Finally, I sprayed the roses that haven’t yet croaked.
I caught a deer in the act of biting off a fully bloomed geranium, but it hasn’t returned for a second course.
P.S. I have actually sprayed all these multiple times because I just can’t seem to believe the claims. Time will tell…
