I have had problems of my own here....a garden in full bloom with lots of flowers knocked over by Power & Light and also the electricians. This was a full flower bed of coneflowers, dahlias, lilies, Coreopsis, and roses.

Thankfully I had a day to clear it out without them covering it with soil when they had to dig a 48" deep trench for an electrical line. I made them layer the soil they backfilled (when they filled the trench back up after excavation) with compost and soil. I have about 6-8" of sub soil on TOP of my garden, so I have some work to do before I try to replant.
