So, I let my geese and ducks free range during the day and most of the time they stay away from the house, until this week. I had a planter of Hens and Chicks sitting by my door and now they are destroyed, the geese seem to love them. So, now I have to figure out where to put the planter in hopes of saving the few that they didn't kill and eat. Are there any other plants/flowers geese love, so I can watch out for my flowers?
 
Mine ate my sweet potato vine to the ground. They also circle my veggie garden (which is fenced) eyeing up the lettuce and tomatos. Any red tomato that hangs over the fence is gone! They also ate my iris when it was first coming up but now that the leaves are bigger (and tougher?) they are leaving it alone.
 
My goose grazes down my Brunnera (Siberian bugloss/Heartleaf) and my Trollius (Globeflower). Both plants are perennials and they survive, but they do not get to bloom.
