You could also plant a tiny scrap of 'German Ivy' (Senecio
mikanioides) somewhere in the middle and watch everything disappear
under a mantle of flabby, green vaguely ivy like leaves in a matter of
weeks.  Wait for the flower buds to appear and then enjoy them as
--they turn black and wither at the slightest hint of frost.
