Decorating with rocks is an age-old practice that has evolved with modern tastes and needs. In addition to heightening your property’s curb appeal, landscaping rocks are great for paving paths and mulching flower beds and gardens. Durable and easy to maintain, decorative landscaping rocks are a simple solution to add beauty to your outdoor spaces.
Use decomposed granite to create footpaths or a driveway. Choose smooth-edged river rock for water features or anywhere you’d like to add a tranquil touch. Red lava rock adds rich color and is good for mulching. White landscaping rock — like marble chips, pebbles and gravel — can brighten shady spots of your garden and give it an overall clean, crisp look.
At Lowe’s, you’ll find a wide array of landscaping rocks — from crushed stone, pebbles and gravel to river rock, lava rock, and larger decorative stones. Choose from over two dozen colors and multiple sizes. For step-by-step instructions on how to use landscaping rocks to create a welcoming and attractive sitting area, check out our guide — DIY Pea Gravel Patio.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What do you put under landscaping rock?
A: It’s a good idea to place a layer of water-permeable landscaping fabric before you put down landscaping rock. The fabric helps prevent weeds and makes the area easier to maintain. Landscape fabric can also help reduce soil runoff. If you’re using the rock to mulch a planting bed, landscape fabric can keep the soil temperature more stable for your plants.
Q: What are the different types of landscaping rocks?
A: Brick chips, crushed gravel, lava rock, river rock and marble are all popular choices for creating pathways and driveways, mulching garden beds and more. Plus, if you’re looking for rock garden ideas, the availability of polished pebbles, landscape glass, garden rock and other decorative rock allows you to create the perfect design for your landscape.
Q: How do I choose landscaping rock?
A: Personal taste, landscape features and how you plan to use the rock all can influence your choices when landscaping with rocks. Look for rock types that complement the colors of your home and surrounding area or try a bolder shade that stands out. In planting beds, coarse rock is best for large shrubs and trees while small plants look better with smaller rocks. Light colors of rock highlight your plants. But make sure the plants can handle the heat the rock reflects. And, if you’re designing a gravel walkway, rounded pea gravel will reduce footprints and make the path more comfortable for pets.
