So he had to shovel that back out, then he got this idea that
if we move the rhubarb now, he could pile the dirt there. So that took some
extra time as it wasn't easy to get out, due to cramped quarters and other
plant roots. I planted into the raised beds around the lily pond. DS then
tossed the loose dirt up in the area where the rhubarb came out of.... I
have a feeling we'll still be making trips out to the front yard berm and
returning some of that dirt for back fill.... we'll see.


This sounds so reminiscent of what happened to my bog garden and the
irises - lol. Hubby shovelling the soil out faster than I could move the
plants.....
