Following is a partial list of deer tolerant annuals.
  Remember, not all plants are universally tolerant, variations in susceptibility are to be expected.
 

It is wise to test the susceptibility of a plant prior to installation. Leave the plant in the garden for a couple of weeks and see if "your" deer have acquired a taste for this plant.

Keep in mind too...
In a drought nothing is sacred and deer prefer young tender shoots over hard woody stems.
   
  To round out your garden, there are many bulbs & tubers, ground covers, perennials, shrubs, trees, and vines that can survive successfully in deer country.
