What are some good outdoor plants/bushes when you have a puppy who likes to chew?

My 7 mo. old pup has ruined my birds of paradise by chewing them up. Any ideas for plants she will stay away from?

    Wait until your puppy is older before spending money on shrubs. As he grows older he will stop chewing on everything.

    You might want to put in ready grown shrubs or half grown shrubs after he stops this chewing puppy hood. By then he won't pay any attention to them.

    You can try spraying your existing plants with a hot pepper spray to discourage her from chewing them. As Joanne said, she will eventually grow out of this stage.
