Front: 2020 This one, which was lovely, succumbed to the dinosaur toes. Thugs.
2019: Planted one at the N end of the CA garden, hoping to get some vigorous hostas to fill in and perhaps drive out the oriental limelight. Great plan. 2020 - the deer found them and have mowed down all the hostas that aren't right next to the house. Sigh. Odd that they never bothered them much in all these years?
