Picture this – you drop a seed, but not just any seed – you’re talking about a miniature pumpkin that you’ve engineered to grow into a perfect rabbit shape. You plant it in a neat little raised bed, mulch it up, and let the neighborhood wonder what that odd “rabbit” is doing in the garden. When it finally sprouts, the neighbors will be so puzzled that you’ll have to explain it’s a plant prank, but you’ll have a hidden camera to catch their face‑punching reactions. The rabbit can even be rigged to “eat” a tiny piece of lettuce or leaf so it looks alive, and when the neighbor goes to poke it, the little “rabbit” will bolt, making for a priceless moment of garden theater.

Sounds like you’re ready to trade the science‑lab rabbit for a theatrical puppet. How about this—stash a tiny, realistic rabbit toy right in the bed, but give it a secret weapon: a little pocket of dry lettuce that pops out when someone moves it. So when the neighbors come over, they think the rabbit is a prankster, then they taste the lettuce and think it’s magic. Add a sticky note that says “Garden Rabbit: Loves Lettuce, Not Your Soil.” Easy to set up, plants stay happy, and you get the laugh plus the extra crunch.
