Sonoran Gold at Mid Valley Rock
Sonoran Gold Colors vary by pallet and wet vs dry. See it in the yard.

Sonoran Gold brings a sunny, earthy color to a yard. The base is a mustard yellow, and brown tones run through each piece. It works well with Mediterranean, Spanish and desert-style homes, and with warm plant palettes like lavender, rosemary and ornamental grasses. You can buy it as standard flagstone or as a larger tumbled stone. Tumbling really brings out the brown, so the two forms look related but not identical.

The color up close

Mustard yellow is the main note, with brown hues that show more in some pieces than others. The mix keeps a large patio from looking flat.

Wet the stone to see its richer side. A sealer can hold that deeper color if you like it. Learn more in wet look vs natural.

Flagstone vs tumbled Sonoran Gold

Flagstone has natural split edges and suits patios, walkways and stepping stones.

Tumbled Sonoran Gold is a larger size tumbled stone. The machine tumbling rounds the edges and brings the brown forward, which gives an aged look. Use it for pool coping, wall caps and seating edges.

Using both together

Many yards use flagstone in the field of a patio and tumbled pieces for the border or coping. The shared yellow ties them together while the tumbled brown adds a frame.

Bring your square footage and ask staff to help you split the order. Pricing is quoted by phone or at the yard because stone is sold by weight.

Popular uses
