rhizome was munched to the ground. And nothing was spat back out--I have
seen deer do that, but never before have I seen them deliberately eat clump

Dorothy,
That's awful!
I have had so much garden depression at the hands of bambi that I can see your
face when you found the damage.
Since you are shopping for a new house get an electric fence thrown in. The
best thing I have ever placed in the garden is that fence. Every other trick
is only temporary, even the fence is double rowed in areas where they can get
enough running space to jump over.
Fence=no deer. Peace in the garden.
