From retaining walls to walkways and borders, landscaping stones provide versatility and style in a number of colors. Here are just some of the ways you can incorporate a variety of stones into your landscape drainage designs to prevent damage created by pooling water.
Landscape Drainage Issues
Water pooling on your property is not just an annoying eyesore. It can also damage plants and flowers, seep into the foundation or basement of your house, as well as become a breeding ground for mosquitos and other troublesome insects. There are many ways to channel water through your landscape, but the most aesthetically pleasing options are using beautiful, natural stone to build retaining walls and other drainage structures.
Stone Landscaping Features
Another elegant landscaping option is a stone pathway. These structures create movement and interest in your design, weaving through gardens, shrubs, and trees. Stone pathways are functional as well as aesthetically pleasing, however. Well-placed stones will encourage drainage throughout your landscape and are resistant to weeds and other plant growth as well as gradual shifting.
