We are still continuing the tests on the Orchard. Here is the update:
Young cherry trees that are protected with Deer Defeat Repellent have grown tremendously and are nice and bushy.
The farmer planted pumpkins from the seeds but there are no signs of any plants emerging. Not sure if the seeds were bad or the lack of rain. Will keep you posted.
The farmer planted tomatoes and called us to come and spray but when we got there 3/4 of the tomatoes were already destroyed by deer. His response was “Well there goes the myth that deer don’t like the tomato plants”. The farmer told us they will grow again, even the ones the deer ate to the ground. We did protect them with Deer Defeat Repellent and are watching the progress very carefully. Deer are very smart, they tend to come back to the same spot they have found the food previously. Will keep you posted

 
Vegetable Farm update:
The farmer has sprayed a perimeter of his 3 acres vegetable farm a week apart and there was no deer damage during that week. He just sprayed second time on July 6 after two weeks and there was no deer damage. Now we will wait for a month and see if Deer Defeat will keep the deer and rabbit away for an entire month. This is a 3 Acre farm in the middle of the woods with plenty of deer circling around every day and night. Three Acres of planted field is a big area to protect, with just spraying the perimeter. This farmer grows all the vegetables that Deer love: corn, carrots, beets tops, lettuce and potatoes. Every day is another day of victory but we still have a long way to go before we know the final results. As always will
keep you posted.

Thanks for reading!

My Hydrangea this July…WOW, it looks like it has exploded with color.

Each season blooms depend on how much of the old wood survived the winter. It looks like this winter was great for the hydrangeas. Helpful Tips: Do not cut any old shoots until you are sure those are not producing any leaves. With my hydrangea only the old wood produces flowers. Hydrangeas like plenty of water and a shady area. Like all the other flowers if you like to enjoy their beauty don’t forget to protect them with Deer Defeat Repellent. 

A row of hybrid day lilies are absolute beauties. Too bad these have such a short life span. As their name suggests, each flower only lasts a day, but the whole mass of flowers bloom constantly from late June until early August. I only have two varieties of ever blooming lilies and these do not produce many flowers during the month of August. Deer love lilies, this need to be protected from the early spring until maturity. Once the buds are out it’s absolutely necessary to spray the buds with Deer Defeat Repellent before they bloom because flower buds are a deer delicacy. With some patience and TLC you will enjoy the splendor of beautiful color.

Hostas, are another deer delicacy. Deer like my variegated hostas better then the green ones, but some people might disagree with me. Like lilies you will need to protect them with Deer Defeat Repellent from the early spring until the buds appear. Flowering hostas are a show case especially when you have a lot of them in the group. Like lilies these are easy to divide and multiply.
