Last night, I guess I was too tired to fight the bamboo rhizomes. I went at them this morning with a fresh attitude and a different shovel, and got most of them out. Then I ran up to the hardware and got 10 bags of composted manure and 2 bales of peat and amended the soil with that before I planted.

If only it weren't so blasted COLD here today. No snow, but about 40 degrees, gray, with a steady NE wind. Not a very nice late April day.
