Get closer to nature by using rocks in landscaping

Posted by:  Ohio Beauty Cut Stone

Decorative stone, wall stone, gravel, rocks – all play a significant role in beautifying your yard. From retaining walls to pavers to river rock in flower beds, adding stone creates an earthy, permanent feel you don’t get from flowers alone. If you are planning some changes or additions to your landscaping, take extra time to build a rock garden and stone features that look like they occurred naturally.

Build a rock garden

A rock garden is a simple way to add interest to any landscaping design by building a setting that looks like a natural outcropping of rocks. Keep the following in mind as you plan your project.

Enhance with stonescaping

Whether you incorporate a decorative stone wall with a carefully scaped rock garden or a bed of annuals, following the contours of your property is crucial to getting a natural look. Add climbing plants to give a custom round stone wall or artificial stone wall the look of having weathered in your yard for many years.

Flagstone walkways winding past a rock garden create the atmosphere of walking through a nature trail. Add unique gravel, stone or lava rocks in a flower bed to create your own look from modern to tropical.
