About this collection
Rock Garden Ideas, explained.
A rock garden turns a difficult slope or a dry corner into the most interesting part of the yard. These designs set boulders as if they had always been there and plant alpines, sedums, grasses and small conifers between them.
Bury each boulder by a third, group them in odd numbers and mulch with the same gravel throughout. Save the compositions that suit your stone and your climate.

- Path width and bed width — can you reach and can a wheelbarrow pass
- Where the water is and how far the kitchen door is
- Edges and structure that still look good in winter
