  Hello! I would like some help regarding which garden greens are safe for bunnies! A good general list would be a great resource, but I am also wondering specifically about: basil, sage, savory, thyme, oregano, and the greens from the following plants: green pepper plants, zucchini plants, cucumber plants, pea plants, bean plants and asparagus plants. Also, I have read in different places that some shrubs are good eats! The wild rabbits in my area certainly think so! Does anybody know if the stems and/or leaves from these shrubs are safe: roses, dappled willow, burning bush, forsythia, wigelia… Or any other shrubs that may be edible? I am looking for different things to supplement feeds over winter when fresh garden greens are harder to find! Any help would be apreciated!
