It's true, we're going to have to destroy this flower bed in order to save it. If you look closely, you can see where bulbs are poking up around the rose. When we move the rose to its new home, we're going to have to dig up the bulbs, too. I won't miss the small river rocks someone cluttered up the bed with -- they make a poor retaining wall as plants just grow over and around them and dirt eventually washes by them. It wouldn't be a problem if the rocks had been mortared together, or placed in front of a more effective dirt barrier. Although, given the track record of the previous occupants, we'd probably have an ugly concrete mess to deal with.
