Hi Laura, Thank you for your interest in our projects and visiting our Houzz.com site. The pavers in this project are Belgard Laffit Rustic Slab in Victorian Blend and look similar to bluestone but are actually a concrete product making them more cost-effective yet beautiful and low maintenance. Thank you, Team Alderwood.
