soil...yech! I rue the day I ever used it anywhere but under a path
of mulch and I'm not so sure it does much there...those dang wild
onions just come right up through it.

Not saying that rocks do not have a place, but my problems with
them:
they tend to heat up the area around the roots when the area where
they
are used is in sun, and if they are placed on bare soil, they have
a
tendency to work their way down into the soil, which makes working
the
beds for compost/fertilizer/new plantings a real pain. (And I don't
even want to start discussions of rocks + landscaping cloth!
