Rosa comes as flagstone and tumbled flagstone at Mid Valley Rock, and the thicknesses on hand change, so check before you drive in. Arizona Sandstone Rosa Colors vary by pallet and wet vs dry. See it in the yard. Arizona sandstone is a very popular flagstone with a wide range of colors, and Rosa is its soft pink member. The color runs from light to medium pink and warms up nicely in afternoon sun. It is a medium hardness stone and very porous. Rosa is one of two Arizona colors, with Buckskin, that Mid Valley Rock carries in a tumbled form as well as standard flagstone. ## Forms we carry Arizona Sandstone Rosa - Light to Medium Pink Flagstone Arizona Sandstone: Rosa Tumbled flagstone ## Cuts of Arizona sandstone The yard stocks Arizona sandstone in Patio 2 in, Select 1 in, 1 3/4 in and Thin Select 1 1/4 in minus. Patio Tumbled and Ledge Stone cuts are available in some colors, and boulders are carried too. Thinner cuts are hard-set with mortar over concrete. Thicker pieces can be soft-set on sand and DG. Our [thickness guide](https://midvalleyrock.com/rock-talk/flagstone-thickness-guide/) explains the difference. ## Tumbled Rosa for pools and edges Tumbled Rosa has rounded, smoothed edges from a machine tumbler. That makes it comfortable for [pool coping](https://midvalleyrock.com/ideas/pool-coping/), step edges and wall caps. When available from the quarry, specialty colors include Black Cherry, Blush, Grand Canyon, Peach, Sedona Red, Sunburst, Wild Orchid and Windrose. Ask which are in the yard. ## Caring for a porous stone Because sandstone is porous, many owners seal it. Wash the stone, let it dry 5 to 10 days with sprinklers off, and apply sealer early in the morning. See [sealing flagstone](https://midvalleyrock.com/rock-talk/sealing-flagstone/). Stone is sold by weight, and quotes are by phone or at the yard. Quarries can lose access in heavy rain, so plan big orders early. ## Popular uses - Pink flagstone patios - Tumbled pool coping - Garden walkways - Wall caps and step edges - Thin veneer over concrete ### Is it in the yard today?
