Landscape rocks will add interest to your garden. You will be able to plant pretty rockery style plants in and around same. A sloped garden with grass can be difficult to mow. By adding Rocks you will have a natural looking garden which should be easier to maintain.

Well you just add the rocks to the edge of your yard where you would pot your plants . So leave some space to add soil and add plants and then put rocks in front as a fence.

There are a few different ways, first you could use them at the edge of the slope to make a retaining wall or you can put in various beds.

A line of rocks, backfilled with soil will provide a slightly level area for planting or grass, but gives a slight terraced look. Look at landscape design books for ideas.

I like them when people use them to fill in a little garden area like close to a house. It keeps weeds out and looks pretty, with bushes and hostas.
