The apartment complex where I live has lots of trees which I think contributes to there also being lots of squirrels. And the squirrels LOVE to dig in my flower pots! One of my neighbors puts out peanuts in the shells for the squirrels to eat and I often find these peanuts in my flower pots!
The only way I can keep the squirrels from digging in my pots is to protect the dirt with chicken wire!
Today I bought the Coleus at my local garden center. (Support your local garden center!) I didn't get home with the plant tag on this one, but I sure do like the colors in it!
This one is called Black Dragon.
And this one is Chocolate Drop, for the chocoholic in me!
So, yeah, chicken wire, so I can live in peace with squirrels!
Have a beautiful day!
