@sueinmn @jimhd The deer are leaving my rose bushes alone. But they are nibbling on the neighbor's bushes across the street. We visited a rest stop last week on the way back from town. One thing this state has is absolutely gorgeous rest areas. There were two gardens of roses, all the plants flushing with blooms. Two lavender roses in a spot, with one sporting a lovely cane growing out the top. I mused if we are paying our taxes, that cane must belong to me, but just could not see me cutting it off, especially as there were others around.
Did I tell you that as I have been weeding, I came across a lot of fake flowers the seller put in the ground? That's a new one!
Thanks for that tip on the containers!

@gingerw.. I have a question for all the gardening experts... Does avocado tree attract rats? My daughter's gardener told her not to have one. My neighbor has one in her front yard in a pot and she had a dead rat in her patio. I had one in mine too not long after that. It was really gross. I came home one day and startled this gigantic crow (we have alot in my neighborhood), it was hovering over this dead rat. I'd like to think of it as a field mouse, less scary. My daughter said to call Animal Control next time, they will come and pick it up. I had double rubber gloves and got rid of it. Then I spray a whole can of lysol over the spot. Yikes yikes...
