I’m trying to rehabilitate a small strip of soil in front of our house that had been overgrown with weeds, and “decorated” with those little white decorative stones that haven’t been popular since the 60s.
I’ve spent two days getting all the weeds out, digging down to the roots for the bigger ones. Now I just have some mounds of dirt peppered with those damn white stones.
What should I do from here? I was thinking to just cut my losses, and shovel the stones, dirt and all, into a bucket and buy new soil. (It’s only about a 12 ft by 3 ft strip). If there’s something else I should do, what is it?
Also, I just want it to be something very simple, just a few annuals with some mulch on top. Nothing high maintenance (lest it turn into a weed garden again! 
Thanks!
Louie
