whoops! its perennial
A definition from Beeky's garden dictionary:
Deer resistant. adj. Plants that deer do not eat when they are not hungry.
The message from " rosie readandpost" contains these words:
If I ever grow perineal flowers, they will certainly not get nibbled by deer, and I have never met a woman of any character who thought different. So yes, in a sense, you could say it is true.

You have to take what Spring Hill says with a little skepticism. I buy from them because I live near their facility and have gotten some great deals on plants. That said, I think they have some very creative copy writers who tend to exaggerate a bit. You can do a Google search to find deer resistant plants. I have a number of plants that are deer resistant until about this time of years. Now the deer will eat about anything.
