Boulders

Boulders are large rocks, typically larger than cobbles, used in landscaping for their dramatic visual impact and structural capabilities. They are often used as focal points in garden designs, as well as for constructing retaining walls, water features, and naturalistic landscape elements. Boulders come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors, depending on the type of rock from which they are formed, including granite, limestone, sandstone, and more. Due to their size and weight, boulders are highly durable and resistant to weathering, making them a long-lasting addition to any landscape. However, their large size can make them challenging to transport and position, often requiring specialized equipment and careful planning during installation. Boulders can be used alone as individual accents or grouped together to create natural rock formations that mimic those found in nature. Their ability to anchor a landscape design and provide both visual and physical stability makes boulders a versatile and valuable material in both residential and commercial landscaping projects.
