I think I'm giving up...

The new saplings have been ravaged by bunnies or chipmunks.  The 3 I most wanted have been chewed on.  The witch hazel is a nub, the Bur Oak is one half its height and the hawthorne had nibbles.  The one I got for free, the one I don't really care about, the red maple has leaves budding out.

It is a Canadian conspiracy.  ;)

I did wrap and protect my trees as much as I could and I will keep attention to them, but I won't be buying trees unless they are large enough to survive a bunny nibble.

It just makes more sense to spend more on a larger quality tree, than to keep going through this hassle.

It's been a beautiful weekend thus far.
