I love the stones. It is true, they can be a problem when you want to have a garden, since the ground is supposed to be free of them so that the plants can grow well. And that, while true, is only partially true. In fact, there are many that can grow with very little soil, such as dimorphic libraries or semen.
In addition, if they are placed in a certain way, they are capable of transmitting tranquility and harmony. You do not believe me? Discover how to decorate a garden with stonesand you will tell me .
Take advantage of what you have
If you have a very rocky terrain, take advantage of it. Turn certain stones into a ladder for example, or, if there is no way to remove them, plant small plants between the gaps that grow without problems with very little soil. In addition to those mentioned, there are others that look very good in this type of garden, and they are: gazania, lavender, rosemary, all kinds of grasses like the Festuca, or you can even put small cacti like the Rebutia or the Mammillaria.
Roads made with stones
A hidden path or a little secluded in the garden that takes you to a special corner, such as the tree that protects you from the sun in summer, the lawn where your children enjoy so much, or the plant that they gave away when you moved. Why not have one?
