What would you guys recommended to make them a bit better looking? Most of the damage is one sided and pruning that off would look terrible. So at a bit of a loss here. Already recommended replacement.

Not surprised they are struggling based on those pictures. Is there any soil there? Is there landscape fabric under the gravel?
