Deer are one of the most common problems a gardener can face. These cute but pesky animals can quickly devour hundreds of dollars' worth of plants. And common solutions include the use of unattractive fencing and chemicals. If you're looking for a sweet-smelling plant you'll love but the deer won't, flowering tobacco is it. There are several different garden-worthy flowering tobacco species, cultivars, and hybrids. Nicotiana alata and N. sylvestris are two of my favorites. All nicotianas have tubular flowers adored by hummingbirds, and since the blooms emit their fragrance in the evenings, the primary pollinators you'll spy feeding on them are nocturnal moths. Just keep this amazing plant away from your tomato plants because it can attract tomato and tobacco hornworms that may then lay eggs on your tomatoes. Still, it's a deer-resistant annual plant that's well worth growing. Plus, it's easy to start from seed and has no pest or disease issues.

In this eloquent plea for compassion and respect for all species, journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson describes why and how to welcome wildlife to our backyards. Through engaging anecdotes and inspired advice, profiles of home gardeners throughout the country, and interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, Lawson applies the broader lessons of ecology to our own outdoor spaces. Detailed chapters address planting for wildlife by choosing native species; providing habitats that shelter baby animals, as well as birds, bees, and butterflies; creating safe zones in the garden; cohabiting with creatures often regarded as pests; letting nature be your garden designer; and encouraging natural processes and evolution in the garden. The Humane Gardener fills a unique niche in describing simple principles for both attracting wildlife and peacefully resolving conflicts with all the creatures that share our world.
