Here we bring to you a detailed description on how to layout pebbles in your garden and also some beautiful examples of how to use pebbles in a innovative way!
1) Measure the amount of space dedicated for pebbles.
Carefully plan out your pebbled space. This area should be blocked off from the rest of the garden to heighten the effect of the pebbles
2) Prepare the space in the garden for the introduction of pebbles.
Clear out any brush or weeds in areas where pebbles will be used. Wear gloves and protective gear so you don't cut your hands or injure your eyes.
3) Put down a weed mat
This should be placed over the dirt or other base material that will be covered with pebbles. The weed mat covers the cleared area for the pebble garden and makes sure little will grow underneath the weed mat.
4) Choose your Pebbles!
Choose from an extensive range of pebbles available . They have become increasingly accessible for the common folks such as us! Different variety of pebbles will give a different outlook to your space. Learn about the varieties such as Onyx Pebbles, River Pebbles, Natural Pebbles, Chip Pebbles and many more. Each one has a different texture which you should be aware about!
5) Pebbling your garden.
You should transport your bags of pebbles to the garden spot first, so you know how many bags you will need for the task. After they are spilled out into the space, carefully move to cover the space. You should not be able to see the weed mat underneath, so layer the pebbles if necessary. Use a rake or similar garden tool to spread the pebbles. Try not to damage the pebbles when spreading them. Your pebbles should totally cover the area. It's better to have too many pebbles than too little, since that will make your pebble garden look untidy.
6) Arrange them by hand around the plants and flowers.
Spread them evenly around larger areas. Try to balance out the level of the pebble garden as much as possible. You can probably eyeball the level, but try to get down to the ground level to check it out. Don't be wary of getting your hands dirty!
