Dig It Up


It was time...


...to say "Goodbye"...


... to the Cardoon...


...that was supposed to be...



The plan was to quickly dig up the Cardoon and then get on with other things. I hadn't bargained on the thickness, strength and depth of the roots. It took ages to dig the plant up and even then there were bits of root that I simply couldn't reach - they had gone into the subsoil, which is very hard. I do hope new plants don't grow from the left-in roots.
