On the cover of
50 Beautiful Deer Resistant Plants

GardenLarge’s Brine Garden is comprised of many “deer-resistant plants.”

“Duncan and his wife Julia have a well-respected business in landscape design in and around Pawling, NY and beyond. His garden is open to the public from time to time and is definitely worth a visit, not least for all the great ideas that he has incorporated to make a cohesive whole.”

— Ruth Rogers Clausen

Hydrangea paniculata 'Tardiva' is featured in seve Hydrangea paniculata 'Tardiva'
is featured in several locations in the Brine Garden. This large shrub flourishes in sun, shade, dry, and moist conditions. We have many large perennials and shrubs in our large garden, their size connects them with the stature of surrounding trees. Shrubs and trees grow into one another here, providing us, birds and others with desired privacy and shade. During these hot, droughty days we all seek and relish shade.
In drought you discover who your friends are. Aga In drought you discover who your friends are.

Agastache foeniculum has a long nectar season abuzz with a variety of pollinators. It's native in Wisconsin and the great plains. Short lived, but a heavy reseeder, it persists well around here. Aromatic foliage, we love to brush against it on pathways.

Deer resistant. 

With a 6 acre garden, we prune few perennials, but I shape this to prolong flowering.
This is our dearly beloved Vernonia. It pleaseth This is our dearly beloved 
Vernonia.

It pleaseth pollinators and people alike. We encourage it to grow and reseed wherever it chooses. Most think of Vernonia as a denizen of moist places, and it is, but we've discovered that it's capable of being floriferous in intensely droughty and sunny spots as well. 

Some think Vernonia has a short bloom time, but in our garden and client gardens, since it's in both sun and part shade, it blooms for more than a month.
So hot, so dry. Do you recollect what rain drops l So hot, so dry.
Do you recollect what rain drops look like?

This is Cotinus coggygria, we also grow the native, Cotinus obovatus. 

We think obovatus has superior looking leaves, whilst coggygria has a more prolonged and ethereal bloomtime. Both play featured roles,  here, defining and separating various areas.
