Texas Gardening

Flagstone or brick

10 years ago

I live in the Austin area and am wondering if anyone has leftover flagstone or bricks they would like to get rid of, even large river rock would do. I don't want to go to a hardscape/landscaper business since I don't need a pallet or pile of either, just enough for accenting. I don't expect a freebie, and would take them off your hands giving you a few extra buck for your gardening projects.

Any suggestions where I could purchase just a few? I'm off to check craigslist since I have seen giveaways occasionally.

Call or visit the landscaping stores in your area. They may sell individual rocks by the pound. My dh and I went and scouted out rocks a couple of weeks ago. We weren't obligated to buy a pallet or certain amount unless we wanted them delivered. I think rocks were selling for something like $.16 per pound here in Houston.
