Don't I wish! They are too light, the wind blows them around and they get
stuck down between the blades of grass in the lawn and between the pebbles
in the gravel paths. I can only manage them with an electric leaf blower.
Furthermore, they are so short you can't weave baskets with them either!

Good grief, Marilyn..maybe this is the answer to a permanent mulch?
Tho' I just read on rhodie list that they seem to adversely affect
rhodie growth. Actually, sounds like they might make a good path
material, if not too slippery, if they stay around forever?? Maybe
mixed with woodchips to provide traction?
