...sorry Plexippus, my bunny has hijacked your thread! So, did we give you any ideas about the milkweed? Linda, you are right about that taproot on the AH. I was never able to get even a small plant, but these were also in a field that was hard as a rock. I'm still curious as to whether AH would root in water.

I thought my bunny would like the Queen Anne's Lace, being in the carrot family, but he just wanders around it. It's funny because he likes to eat the Bermuda grass and some weeds, which makes him very useful!

It's getting used to me and will get pretty close but is still a little skiddish. A few years ago I might have been unhappy with him munching on my plants but now that I've got more than I need I am happy to share. I feel blessed that it's chosen my garden!

He actually has a cute face to go with his cute feet.
