I love stones. It may seem a bit strange, since after all, where there are stones ... few plants can be planted, or maybe not? Okay, depends on the species that you want to put. But even in the rockiest terrain you can get a beautiful garden full of, for example, succulent plants (succulents and cacti), as well as small all-terrain flowers, such as gazanias or dimorfoteca.
Haven't I convinced you yet? Ok then let me give you some how many ideas to decorate the garden with stones.
Stone paths

Decorative stones will be very useful for many things, among them, to make great garden paths. They will give you a rustic, natural touch, without losing an iota of elegance that the space has. Whether you have a bonsai garden or if you have it full of plants, you can use the stones to make conventional paths, or something more modern, like this one here for example:

Choose the stone that has a Soft color, that combines with the colors of the place where you are going to put them. Thus, they will not clash anything and they will look great.
Stone padding
Do you dare to cover a part of the ground in your garden with stones? If you do, you will help plant roots are protected from frost during the winter, and, in addition, you will save water since the soil will remain humid for longer than if it were exposed directly to the sun.
Build stone planters

Fantastic decorating ideas for Monica's garden. I especially like the first one, the house garden, for the combination of plants and the vision that has a very novel Asian air. Although gardens with stones would have also put some elements with water because they give another air to the garden. I leave you the address of my website where you can see what I mean, in case you want to take an image as a reference and add it to the post or for the future 😉
Greetings and congratulations for the blog.
Hi John.
Right, I didn't think about it. But yes, a fountain or a well made of stones, or a pond are elements that look great in gardens. As you say, they give them another air.
Thanks for your words, and best regards 🙂
