Stone and bark?

6 years ago

This is beautiful! May I ask - what kind of stone and ground surrounding the stone have you used for the path here?

The black/border stone looks like a 2"+ Mexican beach pebble. The white rock in the middle is likely a 5/8 clear white decomposed granite (often referred to as DG). If I had to guess the bark is a medium grade natural chip. This looks great! I love the 3 stones, a very common element in traditional Japanese gardens. Is this a tea house?
