My friend has lost a lot of her plants to wild rabbits recently does anyone have any suggestions for plants that they may leave alone? She has a big garden to big plants or small bushes are fine :D
 
We have loads of wildies all round our plot, so I thought the easiest thing to do was take some photos so you can see what is there :lol: I have no idea what most of these are, but this lot are all still growing, either because the wildies leave them alone or because they are fast growing/voluminous enough to withstand bunny munchings!!

hate to break it to you but a lot of those plants in your plot are extremely edible - you obviously dont have the density of rabbits we have!!!

In fact you have quite a few which I would recommend for people who wanted to plant things as rabbit food!!
 
Dammit, I suspected as much :lol: there's a lot of wild geranium there I know, what else can I pinch from that lot to feed my own bunnies??

We do have an awful lot of wildies, on an average mild evening there are about 10-15 out at any one time in that part of the back garden, and they come out in different age groups at different times...maybe our grass is just so delicious that they don't bother with the beds too much??
 
Santa, what an incredibly wonderful garden you have! Will you come and do mine .. :wave::lol::lol:

Thank you! I'd love to take the credit but (a)it was all there when we moved in last year and (b)we pay a gardener :lol::oops:
