I was led to believe that marigolds were rabbit-resistant, and often planted in vegetable gardens to keep the unwelcome guests out of such space. It turns out that’s not necessarily true, as our legion of rabbits quickly ate up the bulk of marigolds I planted in less than two days.
I couldn’t be mad about it, however, as the baby bunnies that Andy and I have been watching are too cute not to feed. Early on a recent morning I looked out the window and right there, between the oregano and sage, this little creature was sitting, happily munching on some grass. I watched it stand up and take a gander at the oregano, which it promptly left alone. Same with the sage. The dill was another story, as it disappeared down to the ground after only a few days.
At least the bunny has decent taste.
