Oh, there's hope if you can keep the bunny from taking a second course later on. If there's foliage left, there can be some photosynthesis, and that's good news. (this, of course, depends on which bulb we're discussing too) What have you got to lose? Put some kind of fence or barrier around it to protect it, keep it watered and wait till next year.

Thanks so much - guess that's what I'll do; I think some of them survive, others wont - too bad, i will still try to keep them protected, and may be as you say next year, they'll work..
thanks again.
