Landscaping Services for Your Lawn and Driveway
When it comes to landscaping for your lawn and driveway, you will quickly find that the options are nearly endless. Narrowing down can be tricky, so I’ll focus on landscaping river rocks and how it applies to landscaping driveways, sidewalks, water systems, and walls.
River rock landscaping is a type of rockwork that has been popular for centuries. It’s an inexpensive construction tool that creates a unique look every time it’s used. They are rocks that are embedded in cement in irregularly arranged patterns. It’s very different from interlocking cobblestones that form rigid patterns. What river rock landscaping does best is a rustic look that mimics the feel of an old river bed. That said, if you find a sufficiently clear river and look down through the water, you will see something similar to what your landscaper will try at your home.
My favorite river rock landscaping application is for trails. My grandmother had one that meandered through her garden, an extensive garden as she was one of the few recognized master gardeners in Ontario where I came from. I will never forget how he guided me through her green wonderland. You could very well have your own in your home with the right landscaper to help you out. You could have a small path through the middle of your yard to keep people from compacting your soil, or you could have one along the edge as a border. Imagine what works best for you and your garden and ask a local landscape expert what works best.
Using river rock in driveways can create significant and impressive displays. If you’ve ever driven across a large river, I think back to cruising across the Mississippi and looked down to see how those centuries played out on smooth rocks at the bottom of the river bed. You’ll get an idea get of what This is what a Rick Rock driveway can look like. It is vital to ensure that these are set correctly. Heavy vehicle traffic can cause them to crack and look old ahead of their time. Get a professional to set it up properly, and that investment will pay off in terms of longevity.
The natural use of Rick Rock is for water systems. You can create a river-pool or stream in your yard with just a pump, a well-laid out “river,” and some proper planning. This is a favorite of people who want to bring more nature into their life. Nothing is as relaxing as sitting outside on your patio and listening to the running water.
The last significant use for river rock is walls. These can be retaining walls for gardens, a specific wall of a house, or an entire house. The most common technique used is for retaining walls. It may look old, but I think it’s classic. Your local landscaping service provider will be happy to help you with the construction.
