Deer hate it and it lasts! And I live on an island up north with no hunting so there are plenty of hungry deer around. You're welcome...

Secondly, dont plant violets! They will cast spores or seeds, or whatever, and your yard will be full of them, everywhere!
The “Deer Scram!” deer repellent actually works! There’s packs of 2 to 14 deer that roam the area, and they used to visit our property frequently. They now avoid getting too close to our property!

I’ll check out your Milorganite suggestion for extra protection from the deer.
