Rock gardens are becoming increasingly popular as San Diego county water restrictions continue to escalate. By incorporating rocks in various sizes, colors and textures with select drought-tolerant plants, you can maximize your outdoor space on a minimal budget.Rock types that are great for rock gardens are round, flat slab or angular boulders, rubble rock, river rock, and waterwashed or tumbled flagstone, which can all be found in KRC Rock’s rockyard.
There are many types of rock gardens that can adhere to different tastes, spaces and budgets, but rock gardens are only limited by your imagination! One idea? Create a raised planter bed out of stucco and concrete blocks. Cover the planter bed with decorative natural thin veneer stone. Fill the planter with large rocks and plants like lavender, Parry’s Beardtongue and California Sunflower.
