    Please help my ugly driveway!

    That sounds like a good idea to me. My mouth is watering thinking back to childhood picking blackberries and eating them right there.

    Please help my ugly driveway!

    I am not sure of the soil condition needed but what about some type of berry for the fence. That way you can get fruit at the same time?

    Please help my ugly driveway!

    So why can't the fence be taken down? That might help the grass grow further and make the niew a little prettier.

    We got a late frost :(

    I covered mine all with plastic sheets from the paint section at Lowe's. Hopefully I don't have bad luck waiting on me. BTW how do you know if the plant is a total loss? My lettuce, carrots and radishes are only about 1 inch tall. Angie
