Another beautiful, edible plant that the deer don’t bother:   this is lemon grass.  

 

Lemon grass is an annual, so we have to get a new one every year, but it is a fabulous plant.  It’s pretty, the deer leave it alone, and we use the stems as a rack under our chicken when cooking on the grill.  It imparts a yummy lemon flavor to the chicken and accompanying gravy.

 

Lemon grass is also effective as an insect repellent.  That’s why it gets this spot near the front door.   

 

 

HAPPY GARDENING!!!
