I began renovating the front path several weeks ago. After removing and repositioning the original sandstone pavers I added more to fill in as best I could, given the tree roots just below the surface. Then I planted a low growing thyme to fill in the open areas. However, I still felt there was more open space than I liked so now I have filled in some of those areas with black Mexican beach pebbles. I know I will really appreciate it next fall when I am raking and don't have to attempt to separate out the wood chips (that I want to keep) from the leaves...which was always pretty much impossible!
