    I put rocks on top of my plants to help with the digging up. It generally works. Where I am, foxes only dig if I have added something like chicken manure or fish, blood and bone fertiliser. Though pups will play with chewing and digging for the fun of it. Netting might work too. Rocks have the advantage of acting like a mulch and keeping the water in. They can be decorative, but have to be large enough to not be pushed off by strong paws.
