Gravel, Mulch, or Stone: Which Ground Cover Is Best for Your Yard?

Choosing the right ground cover can enhance curb appeal and reduce yard maintenance. Here’s how to pick the right one for your project.

Mulch: Best for Garden Beds

Mulch retains moisture, reduces weeds, and breaks down into nutrients for your soil. It's great for flower beds, trees, and vegetable gardens.

Gravel: Ideal for Driveways and Drainage

Gravel provides excellent drainage and works well for driveways, walkways, and erosion control. It's also low-maintenance and budget-friendly.

Decorative Stone: High-End Look, Long-Lasting

River rock, pea stone, or crushed granite offer a clean, modern look. Great for pathways, around patios, or accent features.
