There are many keen gardeners out there who take pride in maintaining a healthy-looking garden. Often, the reason for this is to ultimately spend time in it and enjoy it. A garden is a big part of the home, and if you’re fortunate enough to have one, they can be a great place to relax or socialise.
In order to be able to enjoy a garden, having a balance between aesthetics and practicalities is key. One way many people achieve this is by using stones and pebbles. Stones and pebbles carry many benefits and here we thought we would outline just a few of these:
Appearance
Using stones and pebbles to landscape your garden are an effective and timeless way of enhancing it. Stones and pebbles are ideal for decorative purposes, for example to create a pathway or in a flower bed, as well as a simple and practical alternative to grass, particularly for smaller gardens.
Maintenance
When it comes to maintenance, stones and pebbles are much easier to manage than grass. Unlike grass which needs constant upkeep through cutting, watering, and trimming; pebbles and stones rarely become discoloured and require little time. This is particularly ideal if you want to spend time in your garden relaxing, rather than gardening.
Durability
Stones and pebbles are highly durable throughout the seasons. They are not easily blown away, do not decompose, and have a long life, meaning they do not need constant replacing. As the British weather is extremely unpredictable, these properties make stones and pebbles fantastic additions to any garden.
