Benefits of Our Decorative Rock
If you’re looking to update your outdoor settings, you should visit us in San Diego. Rock & Block Hardscape Supply offers a wide range of large decorative rocks to give a spectacular and attractive view of your landscape.
Most landscapers use our decorative landscaping rocks to improve or change the look of their outdoor areas. In our hot, dry climate, grass dries out quickly in the summer. It is beneficial to add decorative rocks to your landscape because they are cost-effective, help converse water and electricity, and are easy to maintain. Whereas grass and plants require daily care that can be costly.
Decorative rock also lasts much longer than other types of ground covers. It doesn’t decompose like mulch or wood chips, so you won’t need to replace it as often. Rock can also withstand lots of foot traffic and still look sturdy and beautiful. Plus, unlike mulch, stones don’t attract insects like termites. It is an ideal and popular choice with the continuing drought conditions in San Diego.
Different Types of Decorative Rocks: A Guide to Landscaping Rocks
Before you begin working or upgrading your outdoor areas, it is necessary to educate yourself on the different types of decorative landscaping rocks available. Choose the rock or rocks that are ideally suited to your liking and consider the design, affordability, and functionalities.
A few rocks to choose from:
River Rocks
As the term suggests, these rock types are found in river beds that have been washed down, strained out, and smoothened by water. They are perfect for decorative landscape designs like dry rock beds or drainage areas. They are available in various shapes, sizes, and colors.
Gravel
Gravel is made from the loose accumulation of rock or stone particles. They are available in different particle sizes and can be broken down into granules, rounded rock fragments, boulder-sized fragments, and more. This rock type is best known for preventing weed growth and is added as ground cover while making a pathway with step stones. Pea-sized gravel is a favorite for landscape design.
Crushed Stones
A natural rock type, especially white stones, that are formed from construction aggregate by mining. The rocks are broken down to the desired size by crushers. This decorative stone can be styled nicely with a variety of outdoor areas because of its diverse size and color availability.
Pebbles
Common forms of decorative landscaping rock, pebbles, are rounded stones available in a variety of sizes and colors that can seamlessly blend with the features in your yard. These rocks are naturally smooth and polished that help adds texture to your outdoor areas like gardens, pathways, water features, yards, and more. Mexican beach pebbles are a popular choice amongst landscapers.
Lava Rocks
Molten rocks are formed when volcanic, igneous rocks cool and harden on the lava surface. They are used as luxurious stones in landscape design and are best for dry climates. The rocks are available in different shapes and hues that add emphasis to green plants. Black lava rock is a popular choice for landscapes.
Cobbles
Garden stones or beach pebbles are medium-sized curved stones. The naturally rounded stones are used to build water features, decks, or patios. Cobblestones are popular decorative landscaping rocks that provide aesthetically appealing results to create a seamless pathway.
At Rock & Block Hardscape Supply, we carry a rock in several sizes. We also carry large river rocks along with pebbles, construction rocks, and sand.
