it’s in the middle of the driveway. I try to stop them, but people keep driving on it. that makes me stabby. the deliciousness calms me down. I’m guessing there’s about 150 square feet. I’ve planted a lot of spreading ground covers in here that I plan to transplant to other parts of the property as they fill in. the native wild strawberry is spreading the fastest by a long shot and it’s really dense, so I’ll be using that a lot elsewhere.
