Battened down heavy black plastic will be more effective than gravel in keeping weeds down.

Specifically, black absorbs heat, which will make living conditions under the plastic too hot for plants to handle. The plastic also will keep out the light and moisture which weeds need to grow and seed. In contrast, weeds usually figure out how to grow up between gravel particles, which do not keep air, light and moisture from penetrating the soil and thereby aiding weedy growth.

The black plastic can be battened down at the corners by attractive boulders.
