Big rocks or gravel and what exactly do you mean by a "landscaping Rock Star"?
I found a couple of large rocks that appear to have potential. I would like to use them in my landscaping plans as sort of 'focal points" One in/with a retaining wall and the other ??? At a minimum they need to be cleaned and what? possibly polished or sealed or???
Hello could you possibly post a photograph to better see your rock situation ?
Having a visual might be helpful to be able to offer the best guidance .....to a help find the best suggestions or potential solution for your rock presentation.
Sometimes placement horizontally or vertically can change its characteristic. I’ve had neighbors by purchase rocks for decorative elements in their yards.
Hi Karen, you could paint it and put your house number on it. Good luck
Hi Karen,
'Large' and 'regular' are too vague a description for us to guess exactly how large are the rocks are.
What would they measure or weigh? Are you able to move them yourself unaided?
Please post a picture so we can see what you have to work with.
If it's a large rock it can be used in a garden as a focal point. Plant flowers and shrubs around it and if it has a dip or depression in it, you could plant something in/on the rock itself.
