# Siskiyou boulders

Siskiyou boulders are golden beige with thin brown banding.

Mid Valley Rock sells them by weight in Sacramento; call (916) 363-4239 to find out which sizes are in the yard.

Siskiyou Colors vary by pallet and wet vs dry. See it in the yard.

Siskiyou is a light, sunny boulder. The base color is golden beige, and thin brown bands cross each stone like fine pencil lines. The banding gives the boulders a clear direction, which you can use in the design. Set several with the bands running the same way and the group looks like one natural outcrop.

## Golden beige with fine brown bands

Golden beige is a friendly color in Sacramento yards. It matches dry summer hills, tan stucco and decomposed granite paths.

The brown banding is thin, so from a distance the boulder reads as one warm color. Up close the lines add detail.

## Placing banded boulders

Banded stone looks best when the lines are level or tilted the same way from one boulder to the next. Take a moment at the yard to see how each piece wants to sit.

Siskiyou works as an accent in beds, as a border on a slope or beside a path of gold gravel. Roundtree Rock & Gardening shares the yard and sells decomposed granite and gravel, so one stop covers both.

## Choosing and buying

Bring a rough count and the sizes you have in mind. Staff weigh the boulders you choose and quote on the spot. Our guide to [planning your yard visit](https://midvalleyrock.com/rock-talk/planning-your-yard-visit/) lists what else to bring.

Loads sell through, and quarry access can slow in wet weather, so call first if you need a specific size or a large number of boulders.
