Landscape with Stone Done Right

When landscaping, living plants and flowers on our property are priority. However, it is often the inanimate objects that hold the most influence. That is why Landscape Solutions & Design offers landscape with stone options. The particular placement of decorative stones throughout the property can transform the entire look of your yard. From a stone pathway to a patio, hardscapes are a vital component to your landscape.

Landscape with Stone Tips

Landscape stones come in a large variety of sizes, textures, and colors. From large boulders to small pebbles, stone is available for any project that you can design. Here are some common ways that homeowners incorporate stone into their landscape:

Patios:

Large paved areas create a gathering space on your lawn. Add a few chairs and a table and you have a relaxing spot to eat and entertain outdoors.

Pathways and Stepping Stones:

You want others to enjoy your outside space. However, you would like to keep people off your grass and out of your flowerbeds. A beautiful walkway using gravel or decorative pavers does the trick.

Stone Walls:

These visually appealing fixtures have a variety of purposes. Walls may separate areas in your lawn for safety or appeal. A wall along the driveway keeps cars from damaging grass. A wall may enclose a patio or be installed to enhance the appearance of the area.

Retaining Walls:

These structures are functional as well as attractive. Retaining walls are ideal for curtailing erosion on your property.

Fire Pit or Outdoor Fireplace:

Create an entertainment-friendly gathering space in your yard with a fire pit or outdoor fireplace. Roast marshmallows or spend the evening with friends gathered around the fire.

Rock Gardens and Accents:

Have you ever looked carefully at a stone? If so, you have noticed the swirling patterns and specks of color that make it such a beautiful, unique material. These characteristics make it an ideal accent or decorative piece for yards. Before placing stones, study the natural layout of your yard. Find areas where the stone will look natural and aesthetically pleasing.
