Close up of Horse Chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum) flowers. Honeybees and bumblebees love this so much, you can hear them more than see them. It would be fun if someone could develop a bush-sized variety so more people could enjoy this beautiful flower. This is a seedless (nutless) hybrid.
Distance view of horse chestnut tree. Majestic in its own right, even when not in bloom. This tree might be the age of the house, built in mid 1970s.
Cranberry viburnum flowers. White florets surrounding a lacy center. This bush has never borne cranberries 😜 No seeds, noninvasive, never needs watering during our long, dry, summers, and deer don't touch it.
Viburnum "Sterile". Beautiful white "snowball" flowers. No seeds, not invasive, never needs watering during our hot dry summers, and deer don't touch it.
A few random bushes and trees, in bloom, around the yard. Horse Chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum) up close and the full tree, cranberry viburnum, and Viburnum "Sterile". When I was growing up, we called that "Snowball Bush". 🌱 #Gardening #BloomScrolling #DeerResistant #Bees
Edgeworthia or paperbush flowers
Edgeworthia crysantha in bloom in central Maryland. Incredible fragrance and deer “proof”. Nonnative blossoms growing all winter at perfect deer height and none lost #HoCoMDGardeners #edgeworthia #deerresistant

A covered stone porch with dark bronze planters and an elegant wooden front door. The planters contain evergreen, deer-resistant materials. I’ve added red branches in the planters to make “nose-inquiries” more difficult. So far, so good.
Winter planters: the deer are such a nuisance it takes a whole lot of perseverance to make something that will last through the winter, especially when we seem to drop into the teens here in zone 7b on a regular basis now. 🌱 #gardeningfeed #DeerResistant

The deer left their hoof marks in the soil, then I noticed they munched on the Hollyhocks! I plated only deer resistant plants, I guess the deer didn't get the memo!
Time for a sensor sprinkler! #UpstateNYGarden #Gardening #DeerResistant #Deer
