I have 7 lop families to arrive and they just aren't coming, I've had one on two plates of superfood.
I saw a garden yesterday with the same set up and all 5 of her families arrived in one day.
Is it something silly?
Tired brain after an operation ..... but they just don't seem to want to come!
HELP

It's just patience.  They don't come to any set order, but as long as you are set up for the adult, they will come.

It might help to deter the brown bunny though, since they are so much more common than the lops.

I tried that, I planted a yellow Bellis and got non stop foxes (with just one and three thorn blooms) so I planted a plant to deter foxes and got skunks and then I harvested a thorn bloom and planted a herb to stop the skunks .... and then got more bunnies! LOL

At least with the bunnies I am getting lots of albino's :)
I don't understand it though, I saw all 5 families visit another garden in one day on Friday x

That's how it works sometimes.  There will be some which come fast and easily, others which won't.

The lop setup with the deterrents needs time to put into place - you'd also need a RTH Rosa Amora to deter the foxes.  It's easiest if it's done in advance but it only takes a couple of days to become RTH if you wanted to try it now.

Otherwise it's just patience.  As with all of the other parent and babies :)

OH RFH Rosa .... oops thats where I went wrong ..... just getting over surgery and my brain is a bit fried! x

The wildlife board said FRUITING, thats what confused me, I thought that meant flowering not ready for harvest! Oops!
Thanks Tracey and Cobweb! x

 and The Norfolk Broad @ Legendary VII AND LEVEL 42 AN7 years, 2 months ago

Tracey, perhaps the lop families don't like the dark??? lol

Tracey and Cobweb7 years, 2 months ago

Yeah, fruiting means RTH.

The lops are fine in the dark though!  The only things which will deter them are other herbs :)

Another family just visited, 6 to go .... slow progress as you say :)
