Subject:  Euonymus - an emergency





Hello,
Sorry to go a bit off topic - I know it's a shrub and not a
perennial but I need some help.  I've got to have some
emergency building work done, and the builders need us to
remove five euonymus shrubs that are in a narrow bed right
next to the house - they've been there for 12 years so are
well established shrubs.  The work should only take three
days, but I don't really know what to do with them for those
three days, before we replant them.  Any ideas?  Would it
help to cut them well back before removing them?  The
builder had the cheek to ask if I wanted to keep the plants,
as though they weren't important!
/ In my experience, the euonymus is a very hardy, untemperamental plant and
should survive a move with a modicum of care and watering if they can take
most of their root structure with them.  By all means, whatever you do,
remove them as far as possible from these workmen who obviously don't
understand why you want to save them!

  Hope somebody can help.
Thanks, Louise in southern England
