    For those people – and those who simply like something that is a little unique of their neighbors – there are several alternatives to creating a backyard full of grass. Here are some of the extremely popular.

    Crushed Stone – Crushes stone also comes in several different shapes, sizes and colors, is easy to install and is virtually maintenance free. It also generates a very uniform surface, so that it is suitable for outdoor dining or lounging areas.

    Pavers – Pavers, whether they are produced from stone, terracotta or concrete, are very versatile and can be used to create almost any type of landscape. Uniform sizes and shapes are great for setting up a rather formal look while irregular pieces can be used to build a casual walkway or informal dining area.

    Pavers could be combined with a current lawn by just having regions of the turf removed along with the pavers positioned to generate an attractive checkerboard look. For this sort of project although you may wish to call in a specialist landscaper to be sure the pavers are laid correctly.

    Shredded
    The Benefits of Having Plant Variety – Shredded bark can be an economical and incredibly popular strategy to give your backyard a makeover. You can just lay a weed cloth on top of the ground, then spread a thick layer of shredded bark on the top to develop a rather enchanting "woodland" look. The bark will wear down after a while but all you have to do is replenish it with a new bag!

    River Stones – Want to put in a sense of zen to your backyard? River stones are an incredible way to do that. The surface they create is, of course, not that even, so they is probably not your best option for any walkway.

    Brick – Brick adds a lot of rather rustic charm to the smallest garden of course, if that suits you the appearance of a crisp edge for your garden, use brick. Set on its side, commemorate an incredible edge. And, due to the small size bricks, you’ll be able to accomplish elegant curves also.
