  • Erin's mom's homemade deer repellent:
    5 eggs
    1 tablespoon powered red cayenne pepper
    1 tablespoon black pepper
    Put all ingredients into a jug and add water to make 1 gallon. You can add a drop or two of dish soap to act as a surfactant, although my mom usually skips this. Original recipe says to further dilute the mixture with 4 parts water to every 1 part egg mixture, but my mom usually does half that. Shake it up very well before use. She punches holes in a spare lid (usually she uses an old laundry soap jug) and shakes it onto plants but you can also use a watering can.

    Hey Erin! Love this sharing of your parents garden. A tip for your mom on the turkeys (bc we have lots in our yard here in TN) they probably ARE after the worms but they also like to roll in "dust bowls" to keep the bugs/ticks off. So two things she can do, she can buy corn and black oil bird seed, they will eat anything really but if she puts it in a place well away from the garden they will most likely go for that first and just toss it about in or near the woods no piles needed and 2 - if she can put a large pile of sandy dirt or mulching near a tree base (again not near something she likes) they will use it to take their dust bathes. They really like my mulch around my fruit trees, I keep replacing that mulch but they stay out of my gardens! Hope this helps :)

    So nice to see your parents' garden.
    That pink shirt looks good on you!
    I especially like the densely planted hosta garden - and the great big evergreens!
    I'm sure Jumping Worms and Turkey Trouble is no laughing matter - but it sounds hilarious!!
    The Asarum Europaeum is my favourite ground cover too.
    I have a suggestion: how about planting those three pots up with some tall, lime green ferns - with the begonias around the edges?
    I think it would look good with something tall against the wall.
    Thanks to you and your parents for the tour!

    Lovely! I have watched this 3 times. I have loaded my beds too but one plant she is missing is the helibore, lenten rose. I got my first helibore 30 years ago and fell in love with it because it’s deer resistant and evergreen, shade loving, tough plant for New Jersey. I got my love of gardening from my Mother too. A Rutgers Master Gardener who kept gardening until she was 98.
