Hmmm. Territorial also sells another rosemary, a prostrate, that might be good for around the parsley kind of thing.

Its pretty leggy, and a good groundcover...totally different approach than the Arp, but both are good with roast venison.

And sorry to hear about your roof, as a native Pacific Northwesterner, I have experienced similar dilemmas.

But at least here it doesn't rain all the time! ;)

Hmmm...the perimeter of our "yard" is so large rosemary would be an expensive project. But maybe "Arp" will do the trick.

If it does, I could be a popular girl in the county.

I am seriously considering those motion-triggered lights and noises.

Or maybe I could hire a deer-stalker. Princeton, New Jersey did that. I tried to get my son-in-law to apply for the job but it was too far north for a Southern boy.

Now maybe I could surround the parsley with rosemary. Or grow it under the oregano, which they also do not like. Or chives...or garlic.

Thanks for the ideas!

Rosemary makes a good deer barrier, and I've been really happy with "Arp," a rather tall, hardy plant that I get from some eco-freaks in Cottage Grove, Oregon.

I'm somewhat north of the Commonwealth along the shore of the Bay, and it seems to do well here.
