A rock garden is a type of garden that features rocks, stones, and boulders as the primary design element, often with a variety of plants, shrubs, and trees also incorporated. The arrangement of the rocks and plants in a rock garden creates a natural-looking landscape that is popular in many parts of the world, including Asia, Europe, and North America.
Rock gardens can vary in size from small desktop or indoor gardens to large outdoor landscapes covering several acres. They can be created in many different styles, such as Japanese Zen gardens, alpine gardens, or desert gardens, depending on the type of plants and rocks used.
The key to creating a successful rock garden is to select rocks and plants that are well-suited to the local climate and soil conditions. Proper drainage is also important, as rock gardens tend to be built on sloping terrain with good drainage. Rock gardens require less water than traditional gardens and can be a low-maintenance option for homeowners who want to enjoy a beautiful outdoor space without spending a lot of time on upkeep.
