I wonder if you could plant prickly pear and daffodils to form kind of a moat around the other plants to keep the deer from being able to reach them?

I don't know anything about gardening except that several of my neighbors have nice ones that I don't have to do any of the work, but can still enjoy viewing them, so take that suggestion for whatever it's worth.

Our local deer herds eat almost everything, except daffodils.  Another
plant they avoid is the prickly pear cactus, and we have let that spread as
a ground cover in areas where other plants can't prosper or would be
devoured.  A bonus is that, in late spring, they bear the most beautiful
yellow flowers, which usually peak around fathers' day.

This is one of the flowers from this year's bumper crop:
