Forsythias are a staple in many gardens, especially those that want to make a vivid statement in the spring. Known for their brilliant yellow flowers, forsythias can turn any yard into a sea of gold.
However, when it comes to deer, the question arises: Will these beautiful shrubs be safe?
Do Deer Eat Forsythias?
General Feeding Behavior of Deer
Deer can be unpredictable in their feeding choices, often influenced by various factors like season and availability of food.
Forsythias and Deer
Good news for forsythia fans: these shrubs are usually not on the top of a deer’s menu. Their leaves and flowers are less appealing to these creatures, allowing your shrubs to bloom without interruption.
What Influences Deer Choices?
- Seasonal Shifts
- Food Scarcity
Seasonal Shifts
Deer may become less choosy during periods of food scarcity, but even then, forsythias are generally left alone.
Food Scarcity
Deer might explore a variety of plants during times of low food availability, but it’s unlikely for them to bother your forsythias.
