Easy DIY Deer-Resistant Garden With Plant by Number Design

Looking to grow a gorgeous garden that deer won’t destroy? The Deer Resistant Garden Plant by Number takes the frustration out of landscape planning with a ready-made design full of bold color, texture, and tough-as-nails plants that deer typically avoid.

Whether you're new to gardening or just tired of losing blooms to browsing wildlife, this DIY-friendly garden layout helps you plant with confidence and beauty! Crafted by professional landscape architect Katie Weber, this 15 x 7-foot garden plan is perfect for sunny spaces where deer pressure is high.

It blends structural shrubs, vibrant flowers, and seasonal interest into a low-maintenance, high-impact design that’s as resilient as it is eye-catching! Each plant has been chosen not only for its ornamental value but also for its resistance to hungry deer, giving you peace of mind year after year.

What’s Included in the Deer-Resistant Garden Plan

Covering a 15-foot by 7-foot space, this layout is ideal for:

• Sunny foundation plantings
• Along a fence or driveway
• Front yard curb appeal beds
• Borders exposed to heavy deer traffic

With clear plant placement diagrams, spacing guides, and maintenance tips, even beginners can install this professional-quality garden on their own.

Here’s what you’ll plant:

• 3 red Shrub Roses for repeated color and classic form (most deer turn their noses up at the thorns!)
• 3 dwarf burgundy-leafed Barberry for foliage contrast, structure, and deer-proof performance
• 1 fragrant Viburnum Bush for spring blooms and pollinator power
• 3 fall-blooming Allium for late-season texture and globe-shaped blooms (and yes—deer don’t like the oniony taste!)
• 3 mid-sized Ornamental Grasses for movement, height, and fall-to-winter interest
• 1 Russian Sage with its silvery foliage and long-lasting lavender-blue flowers

These plants thrive in full sun and are well-suited for USDA growing zones 5 to 8. Once established, they’ll reward you with beauty through all seasons, and zero deer drama!

Step by Step: How to Install a Plant by Number Garden

1. Pick Your Plan: Download the Deer-Resistant Garden plan PDF, which includes layout, plant list, and care guide.
   
   
2. Prep Your Site: Clear the area of grass and weeds. Shape the bed and amend the soil if needed.
   
   
3. Lay Out the Design: Use the included diagram to position each plant. Optional plant markers can help!
   
   
4. Dig and Plant: Dig holes twice as wide as the pot and plant at the same depth as in the container.
   
   
5. Water and Mulch: Water thoroughly, then apply a 3-4 inch layer of arborist mulch to retain moisture.
   
   
6. Maintain and Enjoy: Follow included tips for deadheading, watering, and pruning.

Caring for and Maintaining Your Deer-Resistant Garden

This garden is made to be as easy-care as it is enchanting. Most of the plants are drought-tolerant once established, deer-resistant, and tough enough for variable weather.

• Water regularly during the first year using the Finger Test
• Refresh arborist mulch each spring to retain moisture and reduce weeds
• Deadhead Roses to encourage rebloom. Prune in early spring
• Cut back Grasses and Russian Sage in late winter or early spring
• Prune Viburnum after it blooms (blooms on old wood) to shape if desired
• Enjoy an easy-care landscape that’s built to last and built to resist
