## Community Q&A

**Q: Beautiful hillside landscaping. What is the name of the flastone paver** *(in Photo Questions)*

It looks like a quartzite with a bluestone ledge?

A: Yes, That's right. The quarry calls it Silver Quartzite.

**Q: hi there! what are these pavers name?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Think about the picture of the path to the entrance of the house

A: The walkway pavers are Pennsylvania Bluestone.  The driveway is patterned asphalt.

**Q: How did you set up the water feature?** *(in Photo Questions)*

How did you set up the water feature?  Is the water in a loop?  What equipment did you use in the picture?  Thanks!

A: Hello Israel,
There is a buried cistern with a pump.  Yes, the water funnels back through the pebbles to the cistern.  This large water volume allows for use through most winter conditions (in PA) due to geothermal heating and also allows for many days of operation in dry weather, as there is some daily loss from evaporation.
For the picture, I used a Nikon camera.

**Q: Lovely yard!** *(in Photo Questions)*

What is the name of the long grass ground cover?  Would it survive Michigan winters?

A: Enjoy :)

**Q: what is white flower shrub please?** *(in Photo Questions)*

What is white flower shrub please?

A: Azalea 'Delaware Valley White', if I remember correctly. :)

**Q: what is used for the garden mulch?** *(in Photo Questions)*

It looks like straw but nicer... Nothing I use works to keep weeds out

A: Poppy queen, the needles are from Longleaf Pine, Pinus palustris, a native Pine to the southeastern US. The photo was taken right after installation, and shows more mulch than planned. Our client expects to let the Pachysandra ground-cover grow to the sides of the path and eventually have moss between the stones. The Pine needles are a fragrant temporary mulch in this case, but a favorite of ours as a breathable permanent garden mulch.
