Are you considering sprucing up your outdoor landscaping with something more interesting, attractive – and maybe a little unexpected? With their unique texture and colouration, lava stones are a great way to bring your garden or landscape alive. So what is it about these volcanic rocks that makes them so special, and what's the best way to use them in your designs? Let's go through a few of the benefits of using lava stones for your landscaping projects.
Enhancing your landscapes
Lava stones have become a popular choice for landscaping and garden uses, since their natural, rustic appearance adds an intriguing element to outdoor spaces. They can be used to create pathways, borders, and decorative features in gardens or parks. The porous nature of lava stones also helps with drainage, making them ideal for areas prone to water accumulation.
Improving soil and plant health
Gardeners and horticulturists often utilise lava stones to improve soil quality and plant health. When mixed with potting soil, lava stones aid in improving drainage and preventing waterlogging, allowing roots to access oxygen more efficiently. Additionally, their porous surface can absorb and retain moisture, providing a steady supply to plants during dry periods.
