Kabby! I used to do the same thing, order plants without having a prepared bed for them- I was especially bad about that when I was younger, often watching plants suffer while I procrastinated.
I read a thread on another site about an avid rose enthusiast who started seeing cases of rose rosette virus, and discovered neighbors had horribly infected plants in their landscape. It took a year to convince them to remove the plants, and then she discovered a large planting at a hotel just down the street from her house that were infected. Then another year of dealing with the hotel management to remove infected plants. They also removed them, but she's still finding infection among her remaining roses. Naturally she's feeling defeated and so sad, I think still at that "I give up" phase. My heart really went out to her, and I realized how much worse it is for someone having to struggle with convincing others to remove landscape plants.
