Installing WoodStone properly ensures that your outdoor space looks great while being durable and low-maintenance. Follow these simple steps to install WoodStone rocks in your yard.
Materials & Tools You’ll Need:
- WoodStone Decorative Rock groundcover
- Shovel
- Landscape fabric
- Edging material (e.g., plastic, metal, or stone edging)

Step 1: Plan Your Design
Before you start digging, plan out where you want to install the WoodStone. Consider the overall layout of your garden or yard, keeping in mind the areas where you want to add a decorative touch. You can use a garden hose or chalk to outline the boundaries of the area where you’ll be placing the rocks.
- Tip: Think about contrast and how the color and texture of the WoodStone rock will complement other elements in your yard, such as plants, trees, or paths.

Once the area is clear, use a hand tamper or plate compactor to level the soil. This ensures that the surface is flat and compacted, creating a stable base for the rocks. If the ground is uneven, consider adding a layer of crushed stone or gravel to improve drainage and stability.
Step 4: Install Landscape Fabric
Spread landscape fabric over the prepared area to prevent weeds from growing through the rocks. This fabric also helps with drainage and reduces the need for future maintenance. Cut the fabric to fit the shape of the area, and make sure it overlaps at the edges by a few inches to prevent gaps.
- Tip: Secure the fabric with landscape staples or pins to hold it in place.
