I like that plant also. Deer usually does not like herbs or hairy leaves but for some uknown reason he absolutely leveled this. I think it will sprout again but cannot leave it in the open. I bought it last year also. Mine was little smaller plant than yours Daylily...you have to have it good spot.

It looks quite a rough leaf so you wouldn't think they would like that, I wonder if they like the smell as it's the sage family, I haven't noticed any scent though, yes it's in mostly full sun and sandy soil but enriched :-)

Is that as big as it gets? That would be good, and tidy.

Hi Siris this is its second season so not 100% but it's certainly filled out more and spread, flowers probably about 2ft high, I'll put another picture on as there are a few more flowers now :-)
