your rock garden any way you please, there is also an art known as ishi wo tateru koto, which translates into “the act of setting stones upright”.

The use of gravel and sand can help fill in certain areas of your rock garden. Most people elect to use gravel since it does not collect water and is also less susceptible to wind than sand. However, some home owners will choose sand over gravel for activities such as calligraphy, as well as its improved comfort when you’re walking over it. The choice between sand and gravel is a personal one, and depends on what your intended plans for your rock garden.

Rock gardens come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Some have strict horizontal and vertical frameworks while others flow freely like nature itself. The creation of any rock garden depends on the brilliance and imagination of a great design team. Our talented rock garden experts can help bring whatever vision you have to life.
