I ask this here because some one must have info on what I need. My grandma is set on installing some new edging around her islands and shrubs around her house. Here is a link of what she showed me she would like.

So today I went to all the big box home stores. Not a single store had them. The only one I didn't go to was lowes. To far to drive just to see of they have any thing like what I am looking for. I still have to stop in to a place tomorrow to see if they have them.

So any one know were I can get stone like that? If you notice some are at a angle. While others are like a street curb. I have no problem spending a weekend installing it for her.

Guys I could really use your help.

I don't think that is something Average Joe can do on his own. I think that is actually poured concrete made to look like rock .... I think. I know my neighbor does edging just like that for a living and he has some huge specialty trailer with some sort of machinery on it.

Sorry I guess I should have been more clear. Can I find bricks like that in say 12-16x what ever deep. Then I could do it my self.

You could try to use cobblestone, but you will have to find a stone specific place to find it.

Eric, you can also get molds to pour your own and of any color you choose. Google paver molds or something like that.

Try a quarry or a place that specializes in bricks and block for masons. I bought some similar ones last summer at a quarry up here in NH. They are concrete formed to look like rock. I had to buy it by the pallet, nothing less was offered, but they delivered it.

If you've already been to Menards, then go back. Look in their patio center, or go online and do a search on their site for "Flagstone Patio Block".

They're on sale right now in the "Spring Sale" flyer. Maybe this link will take you there...

I found some thing that my grandma says will work. My grandma and I are going this weekend to check them out in person. Looking at pictures of the ones my grandma wants looks like I will be able to do it in a day. Now all that's left is take measurements and order the stuff.

So thanks for the help guys.
