Not that you can tell by looking at our front yard, but I am a big gardener here at 16 Corn Hill! The bulk of our plants are in the back along with the 35.5 green giant arborvitae. The 33 that were large (planted by a professional) thrived inside our partially fenced property. Three were planted by moi, on the unprotected side of the fence with purchases from Costco. I cannot tell you my shock when I saw one destroyed by a deer rub. I just stood there incredulous saying but deer don't eat the green giants. No they don't but they still might rub them in the Fall.
