At many garden centers, you can buy a product that is essentially powdered urine from big cats (lions and tigers, etc.).Sprinkle this around your flowerbeds, and many flower-eating animals will stay away.

Marigolds usually ward off rabbits. I'd try planting some of them around the other flower plants.

you can install constantine wires or wires with thorns on them & put that around your flower patch...or put a metal screen to house your flowers (but make sure enough sunlight gets through)

Rabbits (and squirrels) hate the smell of moth balls. Tuck a few moth balls around the flowers and they will leave them alone. If you have little ones who could grab them, try putting them just underneath the soil...

I use a product called Liquid Fence. It's suppose to be non-toxic but it smells like the devil when you first spray it on. Once it dries, humans can't smell it but animals can and they stay away. I've had no problems since.

I too have had trouble with rabbits nibbling at my flowers and my garden plants. Everyone has a fix for this and so do I. Go to your local beauty salon and ask them for some hair clippings. Then spread out some of the clippings around your flowers. The rabbit will detect the human scent and leave them alone. P.S. If your neighbor is having the same trouble, don't tell him your newly found solution that way the rabbit will leave you alone and just go over there.

Seven Dust that you use for your garden will also keep the rabbits away from your flowers, you can purchase this in the garden section of your local retailer

The answers already given will probably solve your problem, but if all else fails, as it did for me, the product that solved my problem was fox urine. It is sold in squeeze bottles, kind of pricey, but "use as directed", (how corny does that sound?), and it should do the trick. Rabbits smell a fox in the area, and they will relocate the whole family to get away from a preditor. It will take about a week to work, but they will hang "for sale" signs in the burrows that they feel are a threat to themselves and offspring.
