Flagstone accents in strategic places throughout your landscape design will give you a rich look. Perhaps edge your swimming pool with stone. Use the stone to accent your outdoor fireplace or put on the top of your barbecue grill counter. Use natural flagstone stepping stones on secondary paths.

Flagstone Accents:

Flagstone can be civilized and formal. Saw cut in uniform geometric or free form shapes set with regular grout lines gives a sophisticated style.

Flagstone can be more rustic or natural with a snap cut. With this look use spaces between to grow thyme or diachondria or fill with crushed granite.

Flagstone is the name used for paving stone indigenous to an area – limestone, sandstone or slate. It is snapped from the quarry in shallow slabs. It is usually available in sections 2-by-3 feet wide from an inch to three inches thick.

In the East, bluestone is often used, the Midwest is limestone and the West is sandstone. How the stone looks was determined eons ago by what Mother Nature cooked up that day.

The variation in color and texture is the way molten minerals and gases heated and pressurized inside the earth. Color and texture will be different in the very same slab of stone!

Flagstone is a common choice for landscape flooring. Area stone will integrate your paths and flooring into the natural landscape around you. Before you order, go to the stone yard to look at the many possibilities.

Take a couple samples home to see how they look next to your house. Remember the patio, deck or terrace floor is adjoined to the interior of your home. When the door is open you will view the interior floor and the patio floor at the same time.

Some homeowners and designers will use the same tile flooring on a covered patio as the tile in the interior of the home for a continuous indoor/outdoor design.
