(BPT) - If you’ve ever struggled to maintain a beautiful garden or wondered if there were better alternatives to standard mulch options, it may be time to consider upgrading your yard by using landscaping stone instead. There are many options available, and landscaping stone provides a very low maintenance, highly sustainable, and attractive alternative to help you create your ideal garden.

Here are some of the ways landscaping stone can enhance and improve your yard.

Make maintenance easier

It’s also difficult to keep mulched garden beds free from dead leaves and debris throughout the year, while using landscaping stone allows you to simply blow unwanted leaves or debris away with a leaf blower.

While requiring a bit of an increased investment up front, Pavestone Pea, Pond or River Pebbles are more cost effective over time because they are much longer lasting than

While clearly practical, landscaping stone provides unique beauty for any project. You’ll see a wide variety of earth tones in landscaping stone from Pavestone that will add nuanced color to your garden beds.

Alternatively, another option to consider is Pavestone’s Premium White Marble Chips.
