Different Types of Stone
Landscaping stones come in many types, each offering a unique look and function. Flagstone is one of the most popular choices for patios and walkways because of its flat, durable surface and natural color variations. Fieldstone has a more rugged, irregular shape, often used for retaining walls, garden borders, or rustic sitting walls. Cut Flagstone provides a clean, classic look with subtle tones of grey, cream, or tan—great for patios, caps, or decorative features. Bluestone, known for its rich blue-grey hues, is often used in upscale hardscapes and pool decks for a refined appearance. River rock and pea gravel are smooth, rounded stones perfect for ground cover, drainage areas, or dry creek beds, while boulders serve as natural focal points or retaining elements. Each stone type brings its own texture, color, and character to a landscape, blending functionality with beauty.
