My young tomato plants have lost their leaves to rabbits. Willl the leaves regrow if I protect the plants?

They will probably grow new leaves but you may want to sprinkle some blood meal around them, this will help to keep the bunnies from coming back

It may be bare where the bunny nibbled, but new leaves will most likely grow above it.
Reply:Are you sure it was the bunnies?





Here in the UK we have bunnies but they touch tomatos. Either way it depends on whether you have any leaves left - if there are they will probably be OK but if all the leaves have gone they are less likely to recover.

Reply:i guess so.. i think plants have the ability/capacity to regenerate especially the leaves coz thats where food manufacturing process occurs, so if they dont regenerate, where will they get their food..? thats what i think..
