Frank & Grossman Landscape Contractors, Inc. This is gold decomposed granite quarried in California. It is a blend of gravel from 1/4" & smaller all the way to dust. This is compacted over an additional base rock layer that is also compacted.

What kind of stone was used on the house? - I know this is a regional question, because different areas have different stone. I am about to start construction in Texas and love the size and color of this stone. It would be perfect for our project. Thanks, »

What Houzz contributors are saying:
All garden styles can benefit from the addition of rock. Here a more traditional cottage style garden uses rock slabs to create a hillside planter.
