    Hi everyone,
    Planning on doing a raised bed along the end of my garden which faces onto a orchard with lots of sheep.
    I want to plantlavender but don't know if it's likely to be eaten, or do anything harmful to the sheep.
    Something natural and not too large as I don't want to obscure the view- any ideas?

    They can't eat conifer, yew, nor should they tuck into laurel. They don't eat my friends lavender,so you could be safe. But then again maybe she has finickity sheep.
