low maintenance , rock gardens that carry water , you can use rocks that plants like to grow on those are great ways to put a final touch to any flower bed or landscaping.
large rocks can always put a great touch to the curb with home address ingraved into them , they can be used for over spills at gutters and lined in the run off area from gutter to curb . the ideas are endless
leave no rock unturned
Building a creative rock/garden can help add character to your backyard. A mixture of beautiful flowers and creative stone/rocks can make each and every plant stand out more and in turn help irigation and the overal zen of your garden.
Try digging part way into ground and try mossy rocks if available and they will “grow”. Make the rocks look natural by grouping.
Choosing the correct rock for each design makes all landscapes beutifull and can be very effective in trying to achive a drought tollerant landscape.
Great question, I try to create a landscape that looks like it was always there naturally. I design a climate for the garden areas, by surrounding natrual stone with accents and contrast. I love the look it gives. The color, size and shape determine everything. Placement is also the next most important, the kind of stone i use have a top and a bottom, a face and a back. Those are the best for building fireplace areas and outdoor kitchens, planter walls, etc. If you need ideas I have plenty
The best thing with Rock landscape you can do is not overdo it in quantities & pick rocks that best match your surroundings.
