Stone Water Fountains Add An Elegant Touch To Backyard Landscaping --

Stone Water Fountains Add An Elegant Touch To Backyard Landscaping -
Stone water fountains add an elegant touch to any Houston landscaping design. Stone is a natural substance that blends well with vegetation. It is also a substance that can be sculpted into very sophisticated forms. This makes stone suitable for any style of landscaping ranging from those very close to nature to the more minimalist, contemporary landscape designs.

The rocks used to make these fountains are either igneous or metamorphic rock. Igneous rocks are formed by volcanic activity. Metamorphic rocks are formed when igneous rocks or sedimentary rocks (rocks created by layers of silt) are subjected to extreme heat and pressure underground. Both igneous and metamorphic rocks have hard surfaces and unique color patterns. This makes them ideal for building a decorative structure such as a fountain.
