Why Landscape Border Stones Are a Popular Choice

When you have well-defined borders in your landscape design, you receive multiple benefits, including:

Mow the lawn's edges easily

Clearly define the landscape bed edges

Hold mulch in place

Improve your curb appeal

Avoid mowing damage to plants

Add Beauty to Your Landscaping

Whether you use natural stones, stacked bricks, or another material, the right landscape border stones add beauty to your home’s landscaping. You can select from among multiple designs to gain the desired look.

When you add borders, you don’t have stray grass from the lawn invading the landscape bed. Plants and weeds stay out of your grass, too. The area looks clean and well-maintained, even when you don’t have as much time to devote to landscaping tasks as you want.

Gain Functionality With Border Stones

Compared to laying gravel barriers at the edges of your landscape beds, stones won’t slide out of place. Gravel could wash away during a heavy rainstorm, ending up in your grass. Hitting gravel with your lawn mower blades can create projectiles that are dangerous to anyone nearby.

Border stones can create landscape walls that look great. They can reduce erosion by holding soil and mulch in place if you receive a lot of rain or wind.

If you want to protect exposed tree roots near the trunk from lawn mower blades, border stones do the job. Our team can create a barrier around the roots, which you can then cover with a shallow layer of soil or mulch for additional protection.

Types of Landscape Border Stones Available

Border stones are available in multiple configurations, sizes, shapes, and colors. We have the tools and experience needed to securely install a variety of landscape stones that will create a border for you. Some of the options include:

Flagstone

Interlocking bricks

Limestone

Natural boulders

Bedrock

Flat edging stones

Some of these options are stackable when you want a taller border. Others have a low height profile, allowing the plants behind the stones to be easily visible.

Our designers can recommend certain materials to create a border that matches other features in your landscape bed. Perhaps you have a stone fountain or a nearby wooden gazebo that is the primary feature. We’ll create a landscape border that complements these items without stealing attention from them.

When you need the project to fit into a specific budget, we offer an upfront, transparent cost estimate for the materials and labor.

Not every outdoor space is created equal, but with tailored landscape services, yours can rise above the rest—purposeful, balanced, and made to elevate how you enjoy your home.
