Description
The garden always looks different. Lush spring greenery, flowers changing each other throughout the season, multi-colored autumn foliage and white calmness of winter...
Static compositions can be varied. And one of the best materials for them is large stones. Extraordinarily durable and beautiful, like any creation of nature, stones have many areas of application in landscape design.
A rock garden or an original flower bed, a real paved path or a Japanese rock garden - all this can appear on your site if you decide to buy large stones.
The weight of the stones is quite large and the creation of various compositions from them may require some effort. On the other hand, no complicated care will be required for the future composition of stones.
It will look equally good in winter and summer. And even decades later.

Boulder stones in the garden - ideas and rules for decorating the site - Botanichka
When it comes to decorating the garden with stones, antique statues or oriental rock gardens most often come to mind. However, today there are many other ways to “settle” a stone in your area - from neat geometric slabs in the style of laconic minimalism to imitation of mighty medieval fortresses. One option is to decorate the garden with boulders, which will be discussed.
Boulder stones in the garden - ideas and rules for decorating the siteLiving ideas for inanimate nature
Boulders are large and medium-sized rock fragments that can vary in shape and texture, however, they blend well with many materials, and therefore do not lose their popularity in landscape design.
There are many options for decorating the garden with stones - from small decorative elements to complex compositions. Since large boulders are visually eye-catching, they can be used as an accent - for example, set one or more stones surrounded by low weeping willows or blooming magnolia thickets.
Boulders entwined with vines will look romantic - like a mystical echo of the past, covered with foliage. This solution is suitable for antique-styled gardens.
The combination of stones and moss looks no less impressive in such areas: “aged”, mossy boulders among mighty coniferous trees will take you to the world of Scandinavian fairy tales.
Medium and small boulders can be used as a frame for a larger element of the composition, such as a tree or a large flower bed. A few sun-bleached stones at the foot of a mighty oak or pale pink boulders casually nestled under the sun among bright inflorescences - each of the options is beautiful in its own way.
A good solution would be to use boulders on uneven terrain - a slope or a dry stream bed. The boulders will organically fit into such an unusual relief, and the lush greenery peeping between the stones will enliven the landscape.
Rock gardens are widely known - compositions of large stones, decorated with mountain plants. And although the idea of creating a small mountain corner in your garden has already ceased to be exotic, lavender inflorescences and neat mountain pines that have sprouted among the stones do not lose their charm.
A similar solution is rockeries, which are also complex arrangements of stones and plants, however, in this case you are not limited to alpine flora: any slow-growing varieties will do.
Of course, not every plot has a large scale, but even if you have a small garden, you don't have to give up on the idea. You can create a small but cozy composition of one or two stones surrounded by well-chosen plants.
However, boulders should not be purely decorative - they can also be quite functional. The classic use of stone is in stone paths and hedges. You can choose the classic version, or you can let your imagination run wild.
Stone benches are perfect for relaxing in the shade of trees - a boulder can be a separate decorative element of the seat, or, with proper processing, turn into an original, but full-fledged replacement for chairs and sun loungers.
Many people are fascinated by the combination of stone and water - and no wonder, because it is rare to find such a natural combination of movement and stillness. Therefore, boulders often become an ornament to a fountain or pond - it can be masonry along the coast, or maybe a large boulder-island in the middle of the water surface, on which water lilies sway.
Another option for using boulders in the garden, which has been actively gaining popularity in recent years, is the masking of communications. Manholes, septic tanks, pumping stations and other installations are often a necessary element of improvement, but they can somewhat disturb the aesthetic harmony of your garden. In this case, a really good solution is to mask the manhole or septic tank cover with a boulder that fits neatly into the composition.
Combination of stone in the design of the fence and path on plotBeware of gravity!
When you have decided where the boulders will be located in your garden and what role they will play, you may face the problem of choice: what is better suited for the realization of your ideas - natural stone or its artificial counterparts?
Natural stone, of course, has its advantages - it is reliable, durable, looks impressive, and therefore many prefer it without even thinking. However, choosing this option, you need to be prepared for a number of difficulties.
For example, some rocks that are widely used in landscape design may not tolerate a humid environment - this applies, for example, to sandstone. Such a stone can be a decorative element, but it will not be possible to use it to mask communications or as a hatch cover. In addition, if you are gardening in a region with a humid climate, sandstone can also be a problem.
Marble and granite, also widely used materials for boulders and stone decorations, are more reliable in this sense, however, their cost is much higher, and therefore such stones are not available to everyone.
Another drawback is the significant weight of natural stone boulders: sometimes it can reach several tons! And this, firstly, makes it difficult to transport and install boulders, and secondly, it may require additional strengthening of the soil: large stones can “fall through” into the ground by several centimeters.
Many people think that the implementation of the idea is worth any difficulties, however, if you want to avoid such obstacles, you should give preference to artificial materials that are not inferior to natural stone in spectacularity, but are more comfortable to use.
Stone jewelry made easy!
A good solution to avoid the above problems is to replace natural rock with polystone. It is a material based on acrylic resins and aluminum hydroxide, which combines the beauty of natural stone and the capabilities of modern composite materials.
Decorative stone for gardenDecorative stone for gardenDecorative stone for gardenDecorative stone for gardenPolystone is non-toxic, and therefore absolutely harmless to both humans and animals. So, you can safely decorate a suburban area with polystone boulders, where you plan to relax with children and play ball with a dog.
In addition, polystone is a fairly light material, and therefore creates less difficulties during transportation and installation on the site. This property is especially noticeable when it comes to boulders designed to mask communications. Manhole covers and septic tanks made of polystone imitating natural stone are hollow inside and equipped with ventilation holes, which greatly simplifies installation and operation. Even the largest manhole covers, up to 2m in diameter, remain lightweight due to the hollow construction and material characteristics.
Another advantage of polystone stones is their resistance to external influences. Polystone does not react with air, it is not afraid of ultraviolet and high temperatures - the material can withstand heating up to 180 degrees. In addition, polystone products are easy to clean and do not stain, for example, from fruit juices - so your garden decor will last a long time, even if you have picnics every weekend in your "stone" garden.
Decorative manhole coverDecorative manhole coverDecorative manhole coverIn addition, polystone easily withstands moisture, which is especially important when masking communications, where contact with a humid environment is possible. However, this property of the material is also useful for purely decorative products made of polyresin, which can be safely left in the garden in bad weather - they are not afraid of snow and rain.
Finally, polystone will easily fit into any design idea, since this material can have up to a hundred different colors - which means that you are not limited in your choice by anything but your imagination. You can prefer the imitation of natural stone - for example, sandstone, granite, or any other. Or you can let your imagination run wild and turn your garden into a truly magical corner, inhabited by charming fairy-tale figurines.
