Well fiddle-lee-dee! (sorry it's a beautiful morning and the birds are singing and I've been up since the crack of dawn)...

I wish I'd been more patient waiting on replies. I went ahead and dug a trench alongside the bed then we put down that fake wood (two long boards) that frames the border then put the fabric cloth down and then a very thick layer of bark. It looks really lovely and clean looking but now I'll be worried about the soil underneath. Drats!

Ecrane - the only plants that are growing along that fence are 3 mandevilla vines (one as been looking rather sickly for a while) and 5 blackberry vines. I hope they'll be strong enough if the soil starts to turn into something evil otherwise I'll have to start all over again.

I'm attaching a photo I took last night.

Happy Trails!
