Yes we can't stop the WEEDS. lolThat will be very nice and maintenance free for the most part. The issue I have in my rock areas is that the grass/weeds still grows thru and if you don't stay on top of it...what a pain!
We had them put fabric down, but i know dirt will accumulate and weeds will still grow. But i think better than having the gardener take a mower across the white patio
