Help with my Flowerbed !!!!!! - September 14th, 2006 at 06:37 AM
Hi all,
My flowerbed needs lots of work. I would like to post a picture of it, but I don't know how to do that.I want to take everything up (except shrubs and alzea ( I know this is misspelled) bushes) and start over again. I live in VA and I think the climate here is okay. One of the main problems I face is that when I attempt to plant anything I encounter these thick white roots. I assume these roots are from the shrubs. They are everywhere. I can't dig a whole without hitting one. They are so hard to pull up that I have to use a hedge trimmer to cut them and then pull them up. What can I do about these roots? Or do I just have to take the time and pull them all up? Please let me know what I can do to make this flowerbed look better.
. Thanks in advance for your help
