Frequently Asked Questions About Desert Spice Rock

How do I create visual interest with desert-spice rock?

The unique colors in desert spice rock add visual interest on their own, so you don’t have to do much! Layer desert spice with uniform stones, such as black lava or white marble, to create a tapestry where the colors stand out. Combining different sizes is another way to capture the eye, or use it amongst plants to create a colorful backdrop.

The colors also intensify when wet, making desert spice rock especially beautiful when used in water scapes such as mini ponds and fountains, or in garden beds where watering will keep them wet daily.

Can I use desert spice rock for poolside landscaping?

Yes. Desert spice decorative rock is fantastic for poolside use, as the water intensifies the stone’s colors for a vivid display. The warm colors and depth create a relaxing atmosphere for intentional ambience. Because many of the stones are lighter in color, they won’t absorb heat as readily as darker options — important when walking barefoot!

Adding landscaping rock to your pool area is not only aesthetically pleasing, but it can also provide necessary drainage around the pool and won’t cause a muddy mess like soil or fill dirt. Additionally, crushed stone can be used near your patio for comfortable, affordable coverage.

How do I refresh faded desert spice rock in older yards?

Sun exposure, especially in the hot Arizona heat, can cause landscaping rock to fade. While you may not be able to get all the color back, you can refresh it by hosing it down with a high-pressure nozzle to remove dust and debris that may be muting the colors. The water will also temporarily intensify the various hues.

If fading is severe or worsening more quickly than expected, you can apply a stone sealer to refresh the color and prevent future fading. The easiest way to refresh severe fading, however, is to add fresh rock to your existing landscape. Adding 20-30% new stone will add vibrance to the look without the need to completely replace your materials.
