Basil does well with southern exposure, do you recommend that for rosemary and oregano, as well?
Do the bunnies leave the herbs alone, generally?

Pineapples I've seen at my villa for the last couple winters have been about 3' wide and 2' high and only 1 or 2 pineapples yield per year per plant. Crazy long time to get very small yield. They are pretty much maintenance free, but quite prickly when you have to take care of them.
Rosemary and oregano can be grown in sun like basil in my experience. Haven't seen bunnies get to herbs but insects like aphids, whiteflies, Japanese beetles, slugs and even grasshoppers love basil.
Good luck!
