Creating Stunning, Low-Maintenance Landscapes with Rocky Mountain Charm
Using rocks and boulders in your landscape design is a fantastic way to break up large, open areas, add visual interest, and increase curb appeal. Whether you’re looking to create focal points within planting beds, line pathways with rugged stones, or install a striking arrangement of boulders, we offer customized solutions tailored to fit your style and needs.
The Natural Beauty of Rocky Mountain Stones
One of the unique aspects of landscaping in Colorado Springs is the availability of native materials like moss rocks and Broadmoor boulders. These stones have a natural, organic look and feel that blends seamlessly with the Colorado environment. Our team carefully selects and partially buries these rocks, creating the illusion that they’ve always been part of your yard. This integration with the natural environment helps your landscape feel authentic, as though it’s an extension of the beautiful Rocky Mountains.
Broadmoor Boulders are especially popular due to their unique shapes and colors, often looking like pieces of art within a garden. With a variety of sizes and textures, each rock and boulder has its own character, which allows us to create dynamic designs that add interest and harmony to your outdoor space.

Benefits of Landscaping with Rocks and Boulders
Incorporating rocks and boulders into your landscape design goes beyond aesthetics—it also offers a range of practical benefits. Here’s how these natural elements can enhance your yard:
Low Maintenance:
Rock gardens require minimal upkeep, eliminating the need for mowing, fertilizing, or extensive watering. This is a great option for homeowners looking to reduce maintenance time and effort while keeping their landscape beautiful.
Erosion Control:
Natural Water Retention:
Strategically placing rocks can help with water retention in your garden beds, providing natural irrigation for plants without additional watering.
Visual Interest All Year:
Rocks and boulders add texture and dimension to your landscape all year long. In the winter, snow-dusted boulders create a beautiful, serene look, while in the warmer months, they complement blooming flowers and greenery.
Custom Landscape Rock Design
Are you looking for a rock garden with smaller stones that can be placed within planting beds? Or maybe a large focal point boulder to anchor a space? No matter your preference, we’ll work with you to choose the best materials and arrange them in a way that complements your landscape’s overall design.
Creating Water Features with Rock Elements
In addition to traditional rock landscaping, Fredell Enterprises can help you incorporate water features that enhance the natural appeal of your yard. Water features, such as fountains or small streams surrounded by stones and boulders, bring a sense of tranquility and movement to your landscape. This combination of water and stone can turn your outdoor space into a peaceful oasis, allowing you to enjoy the calming effects of water flow alongside the rugged beauty of natural rocks.
