Shitty. Where are you out of interest?
We worried that we'd get told off for having a scruffy plot, adding plants and a wonky wooden border, and not replacing the temporary name marker with a proper headstone (we still intend to, just haven't got round to it) but instead 9 years on we seem to have started a trend for scruffy planting in the local cemetery vicinity.
I’m in Berlin, first time doing it in Germany so a few hurdles that I didn’t expect. It’s not scruffy as such, we just didn’t want a pile of earth with nothing there for the time you have to wait until the ground is firm.
It sounds like the system is rather unsympathetic. We had water rats or some other kind of small creature constantly "earth moving" for a while creating holes and mounds but they seem to have relocated. I think the council here is fine so long as the plot looks cared for.
