Will have to be a high fence as they can really leap.

I have planted dwarf yaupons, sago palms, varigated ginger, foxtail 
ferns and plumbago. I want to plant lots of rosemary and lavender. They 
talked about split leaf philodendron being a great plant for here that 
the deer dont bother. We have a lot of live oak trees so there is more 
shade and partial shade. I have 3 hibiscus and a meyer lemon tree that I 
have in pots. I have to roll them in and out of the garage right now. 
Even if I leave them on the back porch the deer will get brave enough to 
come defoliate them every once in a while. I really need to give them to 
someone that has a fenced in area.
