When I started digging over where the Pyracantha had been, I didn't realise what a huge root system I had to remove. And enough stones to form a rockery. But the residual soil wasnt too bad. I added another ten bags of topsoil as the border next to where the Pyracantha stood had been built up over the years. A couple of bags of soil improver and I was ready to start planting.
At the visit to the garden centre, I found small perennials on offer at three for £10. Hopefully the taller ones will eventually hide some of the new fence. The light green Fuscia Aurea (my only extravagance this time) will probably grow over it's new neighbours and they will have to be transplanted. We shall see.
