New to tulips - didn't realize they were not perrenial!

They don't browse the foliage but select the flowers and buds. I think the scent from the flowers of both tulips and lilies is what attracts them. Hmmm... Maybe it isn't deer then -- I just assumed so, since I have caught the deer eating back the English ivy and munching on my vegetable garden. It's a hell of a note. I live on a 1/3 acre lot, and have seen six deer shoulder to shoulder in my back yard munching away. Anyway, my tulips were eaten down to about 1 inch above the ground. One small tulip had been pulled from the gound, and the bulb was laying on the grass. Whatever this is, it isn't just eating the flowers and buds. billo |
