The deer like to top my sunflowers. It's always a heartbreaker

I'm sure they would have been great ~

Sorry to hear that your deer are jerks (and those beetles! Man - those guys suck!)

The deer aren't new to us. I usually put a cage around a few lilies, but forgot this year. The beetles are a new one though. Looks like they very recently got to our area.
