Hi Tony. They are mexican beach pebbles. Purchasable through most rockery type stores. They come from Mexico or San Diego originally, I believe.

The yard looks great, especially with the landscape lighting.

What kind of rocks are those lining the concrete-slabbed walkway and where did you find them? Very nice looking…

DM: I like the look of a lawn slightly better than ground cover so I thought I’d give it a shot. If it doesn’t work out, I’ll switch to ground cover. Going with ground cover entirely in the back yard.

Out of curiosity: why did you go with a lawn at all? Why not have a “natural” or more plant-based landscape?

Really looks beautiful – kudos to Alex. Can’t wait to see the backyard and how it comes out too! (Just hoping you don’t end up really using a sword…)
