Low Water or Drought Tolerant Landscaping is called Xeriscaping. This is a landscaping approach that focuses on the proper selection of landscape elements and the efficient use of water. It encourages careful landscape planning and the use of sensible landscape design techniques. Xeriscaping can dramatically reduce landscape water use by 50% to 75%. This can be achieved by adopting various water conservation techniques such as planting drought tolerant plants, using permeable pavers and mulches, installing efficient irrigation systems, and reducing the turf area. Installing landscaping rocks on specific areas in the landscape will also help you save water and reduce maintenance cost. We can design you a very beautiful landscape using exciting flowering plants and shade trees, low water efficient irrigation with decorative gravel, rock, stones, cobbles and boulders and any other features you desire. You or your landscape installation expert will have an installation plan, material list and plant list for for quick action.

Product Specifications and Uses
This decorative rock material is effectively used in driveways, planter-beds, landscape ground cover and utility areas.

One Ton of Decorative Gravel or Rock Covers:
240 square feet - 1" deep. This is too shallow.
120 square feet - 2" deep. Thins out over short amount of time.
100 square feet - 2-1/2" deep. Very good coverage.
80 square feet - 3" deep. Ideal long term coverage.

One Square Yard of Decorative Gravel or Rock Covers:
300 square feet - 1" deep. This is too shallow.
150 square feet - 2" deep. Thins out over short amount of time.
125 square feet - 2-1/2" deep. Very good coverage.
100 square feet - 3" deep. Ideal long term coverage.


The square foot coverage per ton of gravel will vary slightly with the surface and designs of the project, waste etc. will affect area coverage. The information is based on average ton and cubic yard amounts. This decorative building stone has naturally occurring colors and shade variations. These are what gives this stone the natural beauty and uniqueness that causes its appeal. Color tones change can sometimes occur with aging or maintenance practices of the location it is installed at therefore exact matching of existing stone may not always occur. During processing or transportation dust will adhere to the rocks and change its appearance on arrival but we guarantee all stone to be true to the specific brand name, type and size ordered or complete exchange including transportation costs will be made.
After installation is completed the rock should be rinsed off to show the natural beauty and character.

Purchase by the Scoop, Skip, Yard or Ton ?
Landscape supply yards are infamous for providing buyers with horrible rates of measurement. In nearly all cases they tell you that "their" scoop or skip is the best deal around and that they always give a little extra. Nothing could be further from the truth. All companies that buy at the wholesale level in our industry pay for their rock by the ton. When buy rock by the tone you are buying value, not hype.
Ask For A Scale House Receipt
Almost any quarry that sells quality rock with a good reputation has a certified scale for weighing large truck loads of rock material. Each "scale house" or "weigh master" issues a weight ticket for the truck passing over the scale. Selling materials by mythical measurements such as the "scoop" or "skip" is the snake oil salesman in the rock yard method for making a quick buck off buyers.
When you pay for materials by ton you know exactly what you are getting. We strongly urge buyer's to request a scale receipt for their orders and not the word of the tractor operator that he put 4 or 5 skips, scoops or yards in the truck.
