Rockery
To us here at Garden Craft Ponds and Landscapes a natural stone rockery is not just a pile of rocks is a opportunity to use our artistic flair, we have seen many companies over the years just pile rock upon rock or mound some soil up and tip the rocks, That's not the case with us every single stone has a what we call here at Garden Craft Ponds and Landscapes a pretty side and has its individual place in the build and bigger picture, A well-designed artistic natural stone rockery does not only add multiple raised areas for planting but will add a great focal point to any garden. Not only can they be used to blend in waterfalls or waterways into the natural landscape but as a stand-alone feature to enhance a bland forgotten area of your garden, with construction possible out of many different types of natural rockery stone that best suits your dream garden.

A well designed natural stone rockery can create an incredible impact into any garden design, helping to define space for planting as well as supporting any raised areas e.g. to blend in a water feature on your garden pond into the natural landscape, also can be used to disguise an area and provide planting to form edging to a path or create an attractive raised stand alone feature.
