Hi! My daughter is a geologist and has given me cool rocks over the years. I group them, stack them, and edge flower beds with them. My favorite so far was grouping them around a gazing ball! Have fun!

In addition to the suggestions already mentioned, be sure to use landscape fabric or plastic to keep the weeds from coming through.

You could also make a Inukshuk out of some flatter rocks, that would look so awesome

And create a rim around the herb garden made of rocks, I see you mentioned red rocks. That would look lovely, especially with the green of the herbs.

Hi Kathie, rocks included in a garden can be quite unique and look oh so pretty! Here's some info. The plants/rock combination can look very nice when you have vigettes or groups and then some open space, but the design can be entirely yours. Once you start working/playing with it, it will just "happen". Have fun with the project!
