Great Job this yard looks phenomenal from front to back. No detail was spared. Also much patience with the repeat questions...

Thanks. It helps to start with a flat surface. The slabs are poured into place. Every stone is hand placed to achieve this look and we use a transit to shoot a grade, (which is a tool we use to read an accurate level).

It's a grafted clipped cherry tree, (so the clipped cherry tree has been grafted onto the standard straight stock of the tree).

Hello
It would cost more than the Orbs themselves to ship out of state, as they weigh 200-400 pounds. I'm sure you can locate some closer to zip. Just search Granite Garden Orbs online.

Where can i getthe mexican blsck pebble in Texas - Finally a design I love and I do slot of research. Your design is fantastic. I have been research stone supply but can't seem to match yours. Can you tell me your supplier? Maybe they can tell me where t find them in that size. Thank you for sharing your talent. We live in Corpus Christi Texas...perfect plant choices for our area too.

Concrete - I love the color and finish of the concrete. Could you tell me the mix, color and finish? Do you use any additives?

What Houzz contributors are saying:

Frank Organ added this to The Right Stone for Your Garden Design
In this garden river stones of all the same size create a clean ground cover, especially where there is little need for pedestrian access.
