1Making a boulder statement stone products for
awe-inspiring landscapes
2Ever changing by the seasons, gardens are a
living and evolving scene. One element in the
landscape, however, offers a feeling of
permanence without detracting from the natural
setting. Boulders and stone material can lend
drama or complement the softness of surrounding
plants, and will add value and efficiency to a
property.
3 They are natures sculptures and the ultimate in
drought-tolerant landscaping. Choosing the right
one can make all the difference in completing the
gardeners vision.
4Some common types to consider
5Santa Barbara sandstone
- Created by sand deposits over time along the
coast, Santa Barbara sandstone scores high points
in the use of native and locally sourced
landscape materials. Its lightly marbled gold
color is iconic of Southern California and as
such serves as a suitable building material or
simply as a complement to the regions
architecture. Often used in the landscape for
rock outcroppings and dry riverbeds, the stone is
easily cut or split and therefore offered in a
wide variety of shapes and sizes.
6Volcanic (lava) rock
- Light in weight but bold in color, this material
is a quick and easy way to bring an impressive
focal point into the garden. As its name would
suggest, the rock is formed by cooling molten
lava that released air, thus creating its rough
texture and irregular shapes. This unique stone
especially can be used to stand out against a bed
of smaller, washed river stones in a lighter
shade.
7Granite
- Receding glaciers long ago left a remarkable
parting gift. Smooth and marbled with muted
shades, granite boulders offer endless
possibilities and utility in the landscape. From
rustic retaining walls to gorgeous accents, these
neutral beauties can complement the intricacies
of almost any planting scheme.
8Of course moving boulders can be time consuming
and costly. Consult with a landscape design
expert to determine the best type and ideal
location for boulders in garden beds. A
contractor will likewise have the equipment and
know-how to safely deliver and place large stones
where they need to go.
