Perhaps the most significant reason people do their landscaping with rocks is their ability to transform a property’s look. Landscaping stones can frame and subtly separate your plantings, so they stand out.
Landscaping rocks come in many colors, yet virtually all of them have shades that are neutral enough to highlight green leaves and brightly colored flowers, berries, as well as small creatures, like birds and insects, that land on them.
Landscaping stones are both arrangeable and malleable. Rocks and landscaping boulders can be chiseled into various shapes and sizes, and smaller stones can be arranged in particular patterns, such as circles or abstract forms.
Finally, if you live in a climate with harsh weather for at least part of the year, landscaping stones hold their own year-round. Just imagine snow-covered landscaping boulders in winter or colorful pebbles brightening an arid desert setting.
