What can I plant for deer cover?

Taller native grasses can be incredible bedding and escape cover for deer. Species like Switchgrass, Indiangrass, and Big Bluestem are often chosen to provide tall, stiff-stemmed cover in the fall and into winter.

Some wildflower species, like Maximillian sunflower and rigid goldenrod, can provide much-needed browse in the spring and summer.
