Can't you just smother it out with that stuff they put down to block weeds
from growing up into garden beds?

I put that cloth down in one of my rose paths, even though my gardener
said it doesn't work. He was right. In a few months, the weeds were
back full force. They just grow on top of the cloth, in the dirt that
is deposited thereon in the natural course of things. Had it pulled
up. Never again.
