Landscaping with RocksA great way to jazz your porch landscapingHave you ever considered landscaping with rocks? It's a fantastic way to add texture and beauty to your garden.
These pictures are courtesy of our friend Anna from North Carolina. Anna is the author of the popular Southern blog, FlowerGardenGirl™. She is a true expert on southern landscaping and beautiful gardening ideas. Notice how the stone color matches the porch post stain. Very pretty. We love how the rock adds character and charm to Anna's porch - as if she could increase the wonderful charm factor she already had! The good news is that Anna's rocks were free! However, getting them was surely not easy. Her husband hauled them off a mountainside. The rocks were embedded in the ground and had to be dug out, then put in a wheel barrow and pushed up a steep hill. One by one. Some of them weigh as much as 30 pounds a piece. So there is a real story in these gorgeous landscaping rocks.
A close-up view of the rock border. I love how the rocks echo the stone on Anna's craftsman-style home.
Anna decided not to continue the rock border on the other side of the sidewalk, so she balanced the two sides by stacking rocks around the planter. Pretty nifty, Anna. It looks great. If you enjoy these pictures, we show you much more of Anna's craftsman-style porch. More Rock Landscaping Photos
