This is my worst season for them. They eat about 90% of the buds on my daylilies, and I haven't seen a flower on my real lilies in the past three years. Yesterday I had to run one out of my daylily beds 3 times in broad daylight, the same deer. I walked up to about 10 foot from her before she would even move. The reason they come to the garden of course is that the only thing left in the woods after their years of overgrazing are things like bittersweet and multiflora which they will eat only as a last resort. All the good stuff has been killed off years ago.
