Keep Rabbits Out Of Your Garden With This Pretty Flowering Plant
By WILL FORD
Peonies, known for their beautiful and fragrant flowers, carry a secret weapon against rabbits: the chemical compound linalool.
While humans find the strong floral and earthy scent of linalool appealing, it's a deterrent to rabbits. In fact, linalool is a key ingredient
in many commercial
rabbit repellents.
What's more, peonies typically grow to a height of about three feet, adding another layer of difficulty for rabbits who prefer to eat easily reachable plants.
Thus, if you are looking to add a beautiful, low-maintenance, and rabbit-resistant flower to your garden, peonies are
a great option.
