Nothing at all.

I will try Ortho next and then after it's cleared, plant some catnip. One of the areas is a small patch surrounded by sidewalk. I was going to grow climbing hydrangeas (but won't until the house gets painted...a few months...when I can breathe) but this might be a better alternative that I can do right now.
