Whether your "buns" are outside and wild or inside and domesticated, we can help you plant nutritious and delicious items to help keep them well-fed (veggies, herbs, landscape plants, etc).
Outdoor rabbits can be a nuisance, but you can mitigate the problem by planting a section of your yard with things that they enjoy, so they won't be as fixated on your garden.
You can also grow healthy snacks for your indoor bunnies so they aren't as likely to chew on your houseplants (which have the potential to be harmful to bunny tummies.
Alternatively, we can help you source landscape plants that aren't as delectable as some that you may have now, so you won't attract as many wild rabbits to your yard.
It's all about cohabitating peacefully.
PLEASE consult your veterinarian for her/his recommendations for healthy snacks (and proper quantities).
For indoor or wild rabbits, here are some plants to consider:
Fruit: apple tree, pear tree, cherry tree, peach tree, crabapple trees
Berries: blackberry vine, blueberry bush, raspberry vine, cranberry bush.
Herbs: parsley, basil, cilantro, fennel, mint, goldenseal, oregano, lavender, lemon balm, rosemary, thyme, sage;
Already in your lawn, so don't use herbicides!: dandelions, clover, plantain, grasses.
Veggies: carrots (of course!), corn, strawberries, squash, zucchini, melons, cabbage, green peppers, tomatoes (the fleshy part only; not leaves, stems, etc)
Greens & grasses: kale, collard, lettuces, mustard, escarole, romaine, swiss chard
Grasses: timothy, orchard, brome, and oat hay
Water: make sure fresh water is always available year-round (in a shallow dish for outdoor rabbits).
Many of these plants are great for other outdoor animals (and YOU!) as well!
