When it comes time to build yourself a rockery then the only place to start is at the beginning… First you will need some rocks and then you will need the idea.
Once you have your rocks simply start to arrange them over the hillside or area in which you want to make the rockery, this can be an arrangement where the stones lay on top of each other or perhaps where the stones lay next to each other, some people even try to recreate things like stone henge from rocks in their garden which is done simply by putting your rocks in a circle shape.
Now that you have a pile of rocks which is more appealing to the eye its time to think about plants for your rockery… mint and herbs do well in rockeries and are some of the best plants to plant which make use of the space…
