A few days ago I spent a good couple of hours
trenching around a mature Miscanthis sinensus zebrinus in order to divide and
move it. After ruining a perfectly good shovel I now have alot of dirt piled up
around the blasted thing, which is leaning a bit, but I cannot leverage it out.
It bent my shovel beyond repair. I even tied a rope to it & tried to pull it
out with the car but it slipped right off. (ok, you can stop laughing
now...)
Other than getting a small backhoe, are there any
techniques or tips someone can offer on how to get this monster out? I already
have to go to the hardware store for a new shovel, so if there is a reasonable
purchase involved, I'm open to it.
Thanks!
