The first is round surface stones with smooth textures. These are found stones and are round because of natural erosion and weathering over thousands of-years. The-second type is known as angular (quarried) stones with strong lines and edges that make a statement.

They are usually created and are struck, chiseled or cut out of the ground. Some quick tips from our boulder specialist. Natural boulders don't sit on top of the landscape, they are always buried a few inches to a few feet.

Also, try to randomize the setting of boulders so that the tops are asymmetrical in height from each other. Different heights will look great, but keep in mind that different angles can look unnatural. After all, if the large rocks are jutting out in completely different directions, it will be obvious that someone placed them there.

Please be aware that stone is a natural product and color, texture, size and weight will vary between boulders.
