Hi littlepath,
That's a new one. I've never heard of a rabbit eating waterlilies. But with the lack of rain everywhere there is no telling what the critters are gonna do to survive.

I have a problem with racoons eating my fish. I bought a cage type trap and when I catch one our SPCA comes and takes the varmit to Bluebonnet Swamp( it's a nature trail though the swamp) here in town and turn them loose. So in my case it's a win, win situation.

Rabbits eating lilies is new to me as well..However, here and in East Texas, where we are originally from, raccoons can have a field day with water gardens. They have been known to cause major havoc and totally destroy them! Nosy little boogers!
