Looks like you got lots of good ideas for drought resistant flowers. Don't for get crepe myrtles, the lilacs of the South. Summer long color don't mind freezing temps and the deer (and goats) don't touch them!Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-29371434062334876252018-01-19T03:15:37.452-06:002018-01-19T03:15:37.452-06:00Lilacs are drought resistant, love to have freezin...Lilacs are drought resistant, love to have freezing winters and the deer won't eat them. Cows and sheep nibble on them. We have bushes 10 feet tall and their scent is wonderful! Can't grow roses, though..too cold.

The great thing about mixed packets is that you may end up hitting on a variety that you really enjoy, but may not otherwise have purchased.Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15949946977793864054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-91124956475402405222018-01-18T13:36:24.117-06:002018-01-18T13:36:24.117-06:00Don't pull anything up!

I would probably start with deer resistant in your research and go from there. Good luck. I planted hydrangeas last year and of course they love those too, along with tulips. I can only plant tulips where the deer cannot get to them.Tomato Thymeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08230293839907441174noreply@blogger.com
