deer and bulbs

A spritz of Bobbex deer repellent is highly effective. Deer will walk
right past their favorite plants (and mine) if they smell of Bobbex. I
keep a spray bottle handy and refill from concentrate.
A very large container of concentrate...

Here in New Jersey deer do eat trillium. Just this spring I had some
Trillium cuneatum devoured. I throw Milorganite around - it works quite
well if I do that *before* the deer start browsing.

However, I find I have been unnecessarily protecting trilliums, which
don’t get eaten here.
Here is what happens in my garden:
Eaten: Bluebells, Crocus, Erythronium, Lilies, Tulips
Not eaten: Anemone, Fritillaria, Galanthus, Iris, Muscari, Narcissus,
Trillium
