Ask Burton: This week, we’re discussing how to deal with rascally rabbits! Q: I have planted a bed of pansies for the Fall and winter, and last year, the rabbits thought it was an all-you-can-eat buffet! How can I keep the flowers in my beds from becoming rabbit food?
Ask Burton: Q: I planted a nice bed of pansies after Thanksgiving, once my summer plantings had given up the ghost.
