What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Debra Prinzing to Teach Your Landscape Rhythm
This lovely spiral, rendered in flagstone, seems to vibrate with its own energy. The stones form a rhythmic motion as the spiral narrows, turns in on itself and terminates at a center firepit. Where most of the spaces between the stones are planted with soft, woolly thyme, note the contrasting crushed stone used in just a single band to further emphaisze the strong spiral line in this design.
