DEER-RESISTANT PLANTING INFORMATION
Mrs. Ruth Elmer has put together an informational/picture board and resource guide sheets that provide valuable information about the kinds of flowering plants that are deer resistant. The informational/picture board and resource guides are on display in the lobby of the Civic Center and could be a valuable tool for those who struggle to find plantings that have a higher "survivability" rate in an urban environment frequented by deer.
