VoodooChile is on a distinguished road
I wasn't aware of the allergen issue. This place is secluded, but why plant a nuisance?

Neither Sea Green Junipers nor Northern Bayberry are optimal height-wise...too low and slow to hide the browse, and Bayberry still feels like a gamble to me round here.

Shooting deer, like shooting starlings, would make me feel better, but it seems like for every 1 that goes down, 3 more spring up to take its place.

Deer-browse is a problem that is only going to get worse round here, and the suburbs spring up, and woods and fields disappear.
