Gardens decoration with stones: 50 great ideas to enhance outdoor space

Owning a garden is undoubtedly a privilege and also an added value for any home, especially near urban centers. From spring to late autumn (if the weather permits) you can enjoy all the benefits of being outdoors. There are many, many ways to decorate and beautify your garden, even without necessarily having to spend a fortune, among these today we focus our attention on the gardens with stones, in all possible variants. Taking a look at the photo gallery that accompanies our text, you will find several options, both for large contexts and for small spaces. Because it is not the dimensions that make the difference, but the good taste and the surrounding nature, which often meet in a breathtaking union.

Decorate the garden creatively with these 65 DIY ideas

The gardens with pebbles are one of the most interesting and effective answers to create truly enchanting outdoor, where it is a real pleasure to spend your free time. We think, for example, to the flowerbeds, the front-home space, to suggestive corners, to ponds, swimming pools, stairways, fountains and patios, all embellished with more or less large stones, of various shapes and colors. Among the gardens with pebbles, the flower beds are the most popular solution. Generally, in particular, for small-sized solutions, small, rounded-shaped stones are used. Not infrequently, however, the flower beds have larger stones with an irregular shape.

The choice, in fact, depends only and exclusively on the style you want to give to your garden and from the plants and flowers that you will put away. It is possible to create personalized flower beds with “tailor-made” designs, with games of shapes and colors obtained thanks to the use of colored stones and gravel, evergreen plants and colorful flowers. If you want to give your garden a bright, modern and elegant look, choose white stones or simple pebbles.

For an outdoor area even more chic, the advice is to move towards monolithic stones such as those of white onyx. Currently, the Japanese-inspired gardens, the famous Zen gardens are very popular, for which light gravel and large rocks are perfect. In general, therefore, the gardens with white pebbles are characterized by their essential, modern and very neat appearance, with few and well-selected plants.

Amazing ideas for sloping gardens – turn the slope into an advantage

Among the various species that are suitable to be inserted in more or less large flower beds, we mention first of all the succulent plants. In addition to not requiring special maintenance, making it suitable even for those who have neither the green thumb nor much time available to devote to gardening, they have very original exotic shapes that can embellish every area of the garden. The stones and the plants are a perfect combination. In particular, smaller stones can become a very interesting decorative base.

For lovers of minimal style, the ideal are white and polished stones; while for those who prefer a more rustic style and in harmony with nature, it is possible to focus on warmer colors and larger stones. There’s more: do you want to create a garden in perfect country style? So you can get crazy with circles and squares. Stairs, pools that become one with the surrounding nature, patios, walkways with square, round or rectangular stones: the stones offer many possibilities to make a garden unique, some very simple but still very effective, even achievable do it yourself, other more complex, at a glance breathtaking, requiring the advice of professionals in the field. Whatever your choice, for each of these options here you will find the right idea from which to take inspiration to create your garden with ideal stones.
