Why Choose 40mm Limestone for Landscaping?
Decorative limestone rock offers a lighter alternative to dark charcoal aggregates and mixed-colour river rock. Its natural grey tones work particularly well with contemporary landscape designs, concrete patios, retaining walls and green planting areas.
Unlike smooth round rock, crushed limestone has an angular shape that helps individual stones settle against one another. However, this larger decorative aggregate is not intended to replace a properly compacted structural base.
Limestone can be used as decorative ground cover in low-water landscaping and rock gardens. Installing it over properly prepared ground with suitable landscape fabric can help separate the stone from the soil and reduce unwanted vegetation, although occasional maintenance will still be required.
Natural limestone may contain variations in colour, texture and stone size. Its appearance can also change between wet and dry conditions.
