Hi Linda. There are so many different ways to create a rock garden. From very simple to very elaborate. First figure exactly where you want the rock garden to be. I recommend using spray paint to outline the space. Then pull up the grass. Lay down weed fabric. Put the bigger rocks in place first then fill in with smaller rocks. You can even grow some plants in and around your rocks. Good luck Linda. Stay well.
I am guessing you want to create a rock garden? They are so easy, and only limited by your imagination. Pretty river rocks and planters with drought hardy plants. You can use different colored gravel to form paths. The possibilities are endless
I ventured to Big Lots Monday for a few supplies and noticed they have all kinds of cute fairy garden accessories for rock gardens. I love rock gardens of all sizes. I think they look best with a bit of color and interest like a fountain or gazing ball or some other feature. Post it when it is completed.
Hi! Literally hundreds if not thousands are online. I especially like the ones that look like a river bed. The best ones have ground cover plants mixed in. Good luck and stay safe!
