Default Deer Resistant Roses

A fence that leans in at a 45deg. angle will keep out deer. They can jump
high but not wide.

You just don't have hungry enough deer yet. There isn't a single rose

that
a deer won't snack on if they want to. An electric fence is the only

thing
that'll keep them away permanantly.


The Harrison's Yellow rose and the Rosa Rugosta are very thorny. Much

more
thorny than tea roses. If the deer tried to eat them they would get a

mouth
full of thorns.
