Creating a garden path takes simple measurements, laying of stones.
Byline: Megan Sexton
A simple garden path made with stone can add the right touch to your garden.
It doesn't have to look perfect. The beauty of a stone _ path is in its _ imperfection and its flexibility. The path can circle a tree, weave through shrubbery or wind around the house.
At the Southern Spring Show in Charlotte, N.C., Adam Duffy of Lawn Etc. demonstrated ways to build a stone walkway. Here's his advice:
_Pick a path. Decide where you want the walkway to go, and outline the area with spray paint or place a hose along the borders to mark the spot. An 18- to 24-inch-wide meandering path works for one person to walk along.
_Pick your stone. Many types of stone work well for pathways. For his demonstration, Duffy used Cumberland, chocolate gray and Tennessee field stone.
He suggested shopping around for stone so you find something that matches or complements your house colors.
