Y’all told me and I finally listened.

And shit, you were all right.

This Plantskydd stuff works (fingers crossed that it will continue).

The deer have been hovering and yet they haven’t touched a thing since I starting use this a week ago.

The best part? I didn’t have to re-apply after the rain. And we’ve had a lot of rain this past week.

The leaves were sprayed (and yes, I didn’t fear the temporary coloration of the leaves. I read labels) and that was it.

My precious peonies haven’t been touched.

The Baptisia has been ignored.

 

The Sambucus, which has never grown more than a few inches before being chewed down, actually bloomed some.

Ninebark ‘Amber Jubilee’ foliage continues to grow without interruption.

My dear Filipendula are thriving. And I’m crying tears of joy.

But I’m most excited about my Thalictrum. It has never survived to full bloom and it appears we are finally on our way.

 

Thank you readers and commenters.

Once again you’ve proven that you’re way smarter and more aware than me.

More to come with this.
