Rock seating for enjoying the garden

When building a raised rock garden bed, save your large flat stones to create an in-wall seat for enjoyment of the bed once complete. Rock seating can be a great feature in itself..
Core-drilled rock water feature
Basalt columns
More landscape supply stores are offering core-drilled or bubbling rocks for water features. In this picture, we created a reservior under the rock boulders so you can enjoy a pondless themed bubbling rock collection.
Rock stepping stones
Mica Quartz
Sometimes its nice to have a path without the heavy look of concrete or paving stone materials. Flagstone stepping stones winding through a planting bed can offer a nice soft path and allow for a clean walkway as the same time.
Decorative rock and garden stone path
Sunset Gold mica
A flagtone walkway can be a nice way to break up the unexciting decorative rock driveway. This walkway was going from the stairs by the pool to the changing room on the side of the house. But please use caution, rock pathways can be sharp and unfriendly to bare feet, especially if they are wet!
