Mike - That's what I had to do with 3 beds, make them myself. Painful work. LOL! Actually, now that I think about it, I have the corner (6' square), the "L" bed (15' long x 4' wide, then it bends in an "L" which is 6' long by 3' wide), the petunia bed (approx. 8' wide by 6' deep), the pond area (23' long, 13' wide, 4' deep.. took about 13 tons of fill dirt one shovel at a time), then the west side, which is .. crap, I don't know, but big.. like 35' long by .. ? 15? wide. Bighorn Sand & Rock know me by my vehicles.. first I was doing bucket by bucket in my 06 Scion xB, then bucket by bucket in my 98 Nissan Altima, then I could do bucket by bucket in my Sienna. The 13 tons I had delivered and hired a bobcat to move it to the back yard, but I had to pile, smooth, & put it in the right way, plus line the bricks.
Transplanted 2 of my roses last night.. they were in a rock bed in the front and they were just 100% NOT happy. I hadn't seen either one bloom at ALL this year. They'll be happier in the back I believe away from the rocks. I'm striving to move my other 3 tonight.. already have the holes dug. And since I'm already starting to move mulch in the back, they should be in a happier way than in a rock bed. Guess it's too hot w/the rocks. I'll put some agastache in their place in the front.. I love that stuff. Smells wonderful & the hummers LOVE 'em!
