using left-out lawn sods as filler formy newly made flower bed
 
I have made a flower bed which i need to fill it up with top soil. I
built the flower bed on a site where the sod was laied out. Now I do
have quite a few lawn sods left from the building process. I am
thinking of use the lawn sods as fillers for my flower beds. However, I
am not sure if that good idea as it may cause problems for my planted
shrubs/flowers down in the road. What do you suggest? Is it a good idea
to use left-out sods for the flower bed?

thanks

Your question makes no sense to me.

Stack the unused sod upside down. It will decay to a very good soil
for the flowers.
