Flowers that don’t require much water and are rabbit proof?

I’ve had excellent luck with begonias, but I’m looking for something different this year.

We have tons of bunnies around and they tend to eat the annuals like petunias and pansies. They leave all the perennials alone. Lilies, tulips, daffodils, hyacinths, peonies, etc have all been fine.
Also annuals like coreopsis and zinnias seem to be left untouched.

Brown eyed Susans. Didn’t water them once last year and they grew 3 feet and stayed yellow for what seemed like all summer long. And they propagate very easily.

Not for me! The rabbits ate mine!

Stanky stuff - lavender and catmint - are safe in my garden, but I was looking up a list for you and delphiniums are supposed to be rabbit proof and they very definitely ate mine one year.

I’d experiment with things like lavender and catmint in the ground and put your begonias in (tall) pots or planters. When they’re hungry enough, they’ll even eat from their alleged “won’t eat” list.
