I love this ornamental Peanut plant. It is super hardy and is a great ground cover with yellow flowers that bloom on and off all summer. They even survive in the median along our four lane road.
They were on sale at Home Depot, so I bought a few for my front yard. We planted and watered, then after a few days we noticed they weren't doing so well. I thought, must be my brown thumb. They kept getting worse.
Well, I thought, I'm glad I only bought a few.
Then yes, you know the end of this story. The next morning, I looked out my front window to see a rabbit happily munching on each plant. (If you know me, you know about my other rabbit stories.) Soooo, we not only house them, we feed them delicious food. ARGH!
I read in the paper that if you put dried blood around your plants, the rabbits won't eat it. Say what? I just HAD to email the writer and ask what kind of blood, and where is it bottled? So far, I've no answer.

But I guess that's okay, 'cause I might have buzzards hovering next.
"For every beast of the forest in Mine, the cattle on a thousand hills. I know every bird of the mountains, and everything that moves in the field is Mine." Psalm 50:10, 11
I won't harm the bunnies, but I can rely on the One who made all creatures to take care of the plantings in my life. Even when they become tattered and torn, He knows about each nibble on them, past present and future.
His blood is my protection.
