The Rose Pit

Area C1 -- Managed to find out a bit about transplanting roses.  This requires digging a pit roughly two feet by four feet to receive the transplant.  On the plus side, all that digging has removed a large portion of the tropical grass straw planted by a previous occupant.  On the minus side, I'm pretty sure all the water that I put into the pit to losen up the ground is still there.  

Maybe a wretched squirrel will drown in it and my irises can grow in piece.
