Random
When you want a stone pathway or patio that looks like it came straight from the forest, do so with randomly spaced stones such as this.
This type of pathway is better for gardens or along the side of the house than as a front pathway. While this type of stone pathway doesn't stand out as prominently as slate and flagstone paths, it does an adequate job of blending into the landscape.
One benefit, too, is that no mortar or grout is used. The weight of the stones does the job. Real stone is considerably heavier than masonry, such as concrete pavers or pea gravel. The weight of the stones settles them deeply into the soil. Call JJ Landscaping @ (647) 784-7085. We would be happy to answer any questions you may have.
