Overview

Stone that belongs in a garden

Outdoor stone must handle sun, rain, frost and footfall while looking natural beside planting. Flagstones, boulders, walling stone and edging each play a different role in a landscape.

The most successful gardens use a small palette of stones repeated across paving, walls and features, with variation in size and texture for interest.

Natural stone in the garden

Stone gives gardens structure that lasts. Good choices balance look, grip and durability.

Hard landscaping is the framework on which planting depends. Getting the base, drainage and edges right matters as much as the stone. Natural stone weathers rather than deteriorates, so a garden feels more established each year.
