Garden plants rabbits will/won't eat?

Filed under :Herb Garden

I want to plant my herbs in a lawn garden to make it (less ugly & bare) prettier, but I don’t want to have the rabbits eating them away, so which ones will they eat & which will they leave alone? Currently I have:
Common sage
Rosemary
Lavender
Lavender mint (peppermint)
Sweet mint (spearmint)
Candy mint (peppermint)
Sweet basil
Dill (dwarf)
Cilantro, basil, parsley & dill seedlings
I know the basil doesn’t stand a chance undefended & the mints are too aggressive plus need defended, but what about the dill, rosemary, sage & lavender? Will the rabbits eat them?
FWIW they are domestic rabbits someone let loose a few (rabbit) generations ago, not true wild rabbits.

Ugh & will chickens eat them?? They’ve gotten into the garden (vegetable) even though it’s fenced off & have yet to eat anything.
Do you have sweet basil or something else? (I know they don’t like cinnamon basil for example) I have a few caged rabbits & they love, love, love the sweet basil & sweet mint when I give them pieces.


Want to start a perennial and then separate annual herb garden?

Filed under :Herb Garden

So mainly my questions are which are which and some recommendations for herbs to plant in each. I already have Chives and Lemon Balm planted somewhere else and I’m not planning on putting them in my new garden area.

Perennials (I think) that I have:

rosemary cuttings and sage that I just got from my neighbor, then some catnip which will probably go in a pot because I don’t want it taking over. I also want to get some lavender. There will most likely still be space so I’m looking for other recommendations! Preferably some with a lot of uses, perhaps both culinary and medicinal– I’m interested in both.

Annuals:

A lot… Too many, probably. I have parsley (I know it’s a biennial but I’ll be growing it as an annual) sweet basil, cilantro, dill, chamomile, and echinacea. I think those are all annuals, correct me if I’m wrong. Other than those, any recommendations for others? Like I said, both medicinal and culinary are fine :)

I’m also wondering which if any, can be grown in pots because I may just do that with the annuals instead of have an extra herb garden for them.


What herbs should I include in a small kitchen garden?

Filed under :Herb Garden

I have the soil prepared, and I’m making my list for the seeds going on sale next week. This is what I have on the list so far:

Basil
Oregano
Thyme
Chives
Dill
Cilantro

Am I overlooking something very common?
Parsely! See? That is why I asked!


What other culinary herbs should I plant in my herb garden?

Filed under :Herb Garden

Right now I only have parsley, cilantro, and sweet basil. I also have some dill that I’m going to plant. I also have some chives from a few years ago ( i tend to forget its there lol ) I also want to plant some medicinal/tea herbs which I already have seeds for; chamomile, catnip, ecchinacea to name a few. On my list of culinary herbs to get I can only think of oregano and marjoram offhand. I also need plants that don’t get too large, perhas only a few feet at the most, since I have limited space. Also due to limited space, I’d prefer some herbs with many uses.


Why won't my parsley grow?

Filed under :Herb Garden

I have an indoor windowsill herb garden. All the other herbs (basil, thyme, cilantro, chives) have done great. This is my second try planting parsley, and there’s nothing sprouting so far. I gave it about 3 months before I replanted it. What can I do to make sure it grows now?
