Elk Damage on Viburnum |
Living up in elevation at about 7,000 ft. makes gardening a challenge. One of the biggest challenges is the wildlife that I love to see when I am hiking, but have gotten a bit frustrated with in my own yard. When I got home from a short trip to the mountains recently, I found that some animal had eaten half of the leaves off of my small Black Haw Viburnum Tree right by my front door! My husband said that a large male elk had been hanging around. I wish I had seen the majestic creature! I have learned to share in order to enjoy these beautiful creatures in my neighborhood, but I sure hope my tree will live.
