The deer in my area seem to like Hostas, so that's out as an option.
I'm fond of Periwinkle, but 9000sqft is an awful lot (though it would
be pretty dramatic when it all bloomed in the spring).


You only have to plant things that are less tasty then the
neighbor's bushes ...

Any landscaping book has lists of the plants that deer usually
don't eat:

Calluna (heathers)
Ceanothus
Ajuga (ground cover)
St.John's wort
Columbines
Crocus
Bleeding Heart
Daffodils
Viola odorata
Senecio hybridus
