Boulders

Sculpture Stone at Mid Valley Rock — **Sculpture Stone** Colors vary by pallet and wet vs dry. See it in the yard.

Sculpture Stone is lava in a big, flat form, and it earns its name. The broad, textured faces make a natural spillway for water, which is why builders reach for it when making waterfalls. Set on its own, a piece can stand like a piece of garden art. Like other lava in the yard, its rough, holey surface varies from stone to stone. See Black Lichen Lava for how lava forms. No two Sculpture Stones look the same.

Big, flat lava

Unlike round boulders, Sculpture Stone is broad and flat. The shape gives you ledges, shelves and edges to work with.

Surfaces are rough and textured, with the pits and holes typical of lava rock.

Waterfalls and focal points

Stacked flat pieces make natural steps for water to fall over. See water feature ideas for inspiration.

As an accent, one tall piece can anchor a planting bed or entry. Our boulder landscaping page shows placement ideas.

Builders often pair Sculpture Stone with pebbles or cobbles in the basin below the falls. The contrast between the flat ledges and round stones looks natural.

Choosing and placing

Visit the yard to pick pieces by shape, since each one is unique. Photos of your space help staff suggest options.

Large pieces can be heavy. The yard can refer you to a crane placement company, and delivery runs Monday through Saturday.

Tell staff how tall the waterfall will be and how many drops you want. That helps them suggest pieces with the right widths and ledges, so the stones fit together without heavy cutting.
