Stone work add so much to a landscape. We incorporate boulders and stone features whenever we can to lend weight, balance, and stability to a garden. Boulders in a planting area enhance how plant textures are balanced. Stone patios, stairs, and stone walls provide a visual and physical stability. The material itself, stone, is perceived as weight and promotes a grounded, established feeling in the garden.
