Go with crushed rock, and put enough down that you a have decent walkway or whatever, but not so much that you sink into it--you'll know the right depth when you get to it. Use a large rake to rake it out. We have that around our trees in the front mostly because the grass didn't grow under them, and our dogs run back and forth barking at the kids playing in the street. We found it to be a very good solution to the problem. And we did put scalloped edging bricks around the whole area.

I would certainly clean it for starters.

It's not showing in the Ozzie forum. You need to change your country to oz, then start a new thread, with the photos and post it. If you go to the Ozzie forum, you won't be able to find it. So what I think you have done, is just change your setting...but you need to post fresh I am afraid! So you will have two posts, one in NZ forum and one in oz...but the Ozzie peeps will only see your oz one, so don't mention posting previously Keep that between us. :)

Saw this cute little succulent but don't know what type and/or name. Can anyone help me please?
