Re: CULT: REB: Freezing temps, snow, rebloomers, and DEER!

Sorry to hear about this Laurie ;-(

I guess the local deer population has learned to seek refuge on your
farm when hunting season starts.  I'd guess that maybe a new arrival
decided that your irises were palatable and assumed that your beds were
an open salad bar.  I hope your losses are not great come next Spring.

In your climate, an iris that gets pulled out of the ground is probably
a goner but hopefully his didn't happen.

A similar thing happened to my rows of Corn, every plant was completely
devoured to our utter dismay.  Now I know I won't be able to grow it. 
Somebody also took a bite out of every cucumber I had except one but at
least no animal has shown the slightest interest in the irises yet
(touch wood ).
