Barbara McMullen,My main issue here is deer (besides rodents, anyway) and I am trying a variety of humane approaches. The stump is about four feet tall. My observations of deer is that they are actually pretty lazy. My hope is that they are too lazy to get up on their hind legs to snack on these, though with my luck they probably will.-travishttp://amateuranthecologist.blogspot.com/> Message: 5 > Date: Sat, 7 Feb 2015 16:30:17 -0500 > From: Barbara McMullen <enna1921@live.ca> > To: "Pacific Bulb Society" <pbs@lists.ibiblio.org> > Subject: Re: [pbs] Some bulb pics from the last few days... > Message-ID: <BLU184-DS11A5200F6144104906322FCF390@phx.gbl> > Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset="iso-8859-1"; > reply-type=original > > The photos look good.
