Crushed stone is an extremely versatile material that fits well into many different types of landscaping projects. Look at these five uses that will beautify your property.
1. Driveways
If you live in a more rural location with a long driveway, putting down gravel will give you a gorgeous, functional driveway that drains well.
2. Drainage
Speaking of drainage, if you have a low spot in your yard where water accumulates, use pea gravel, river wash, or #2 crushed stone to make the area more attractive.
3. Flower Beds
Landscaping gravel provides a beautiful neutral background to colorful plantings. Its benefits go way beyond that. Gravel acts as a weed block, meaning you’ll have less maintenance to perform. Make sure you place the gravel at a sufficient depth to block the weeds yet allow bulbs and other planted flowers to grow.
4. Backyard Pathways
Gravel pathways in your backyard are an excellent yet economical way to brighten your landscape. It looks great in all sorts of applications and requires little maintenance. Creating walkways with smaller stones is the most common application, but you can also generate interest with river rock and similar stones that create height and edging.
5. Pipe Bedding
A pipe can be challenging to conceal. Placing pea gravel, river wash, or another type of stone on top of it will not only beautify the area but will also protect it from breakage while also creating a space for drainage.
