Yep and anything with roots looks so much nicer.

This discussion just reminded me of a nursery I visited a few years ago. It
was a house on a city lot. She replaced all the grass with landscaping &
potted plants. Paths were washed 3/4 minus gravel to a depth of 6 inches.
She said it packed well, didn't track too badly. Her lot was flat so I don't
know if washing onto the sidewalk would be an issue. I suspect anything
without roots will tend to do that?
