this small border lies adjacent to my entrance walkway and front door.

I have just started to attempt to clean it out now that most of the Oak leaves have fallen.

I like to top dress it with colorful crushed tumbled glass as a mulch.

Hopefully Santa has brought me a new bag of colored crushed glass for christmas this year.

Happy Holiday season !
