Pretty rose in SunValley.


Pretty rose in SunValley.

Unfortunately, it is only skeleton of a rose attacked by deer all the time. As soon it shoots a new branch they are there to munch it off. I swear that they check it every day.
I planted it in early days when I had no idea.

It’s maddening for you Klahanie, and such a pretty rose too.

It looks to be a beautiful colour so it's even more frustrating that the deer keep chewing it back! Can't you move it somewhere they will leave it alone? Couldn't you give it some form of protection, like a wire cage. for example?

But if you have had it several years I suppose you would have done something to try & protect it by now.

Haven't you done an internet search for deer proof plants?

It has that vintage old fashioned look, very pretty too! Shame the deer find them attractive too!
