Deer are not an issue at this location and neither are Japanese beetles. Had one deer in the past year...a fawn that fell asleep on my back porch. As for roses: we inherited a Jackson and Perkins 'Hansa' (one of the few
things here with a tag still on). It is large, but prunable; I have never
sprayed it but had no black spot etc.; and it does seem to survive quite nicely
along with the deer and other wildlife around here, of which we have an
abundance. I do think that its age helps though - it is thorny and most of
the branches were >1" diameter. It is growing in zone 5b.
