Many native plants have developed natural defenses over thousands of years, including strong scents, tough textures, and bitter compounds that rabbits tend to pass over in favor of easier meals. The plants on this list lean into those natural deterrents, making them good choices where rabbits are regular visitors. Planting thickly helps too. A single plant on its own is a little like setting out a meal; a full, generous planting means rabbits can nibble here and there without you ever noticing. Just keep in mind that "rabbit resistant" is never the same as "rabbit proof," and a hungry rabbit has been known to make exceptions.
