We are still under a lot of snow here in Minnesota but I love gardening. I live in a town home but our association is small and we do allow gardening if the owners keeps it up on a regular basis. I have a small perennial garden just below my deck but several of us home owners have enhance our huge spacious grounds with more perennials with gardens around our trees. We would love to do some veggies, but the deer and bunnies come along and eat it faster than it can grow. I've used a mixture of Zest soap in a spray bottle on the flowers which deters them and those cute shining kids pinwheels , but it doesn't faze these critters on the veggies. If anyone has any other good suggestions on keeping the wild life away I would really appreciate hearing from you.
