You will find more and more, especially when visiting open gardens and nature reserves that the most a la mode way of producing a fast and effective stone wall for both home gardens and places of interest, is to choose a Gabion Stone basket wall. Wire baskets filled with Gabion Stones not only look attractive, but they serve such an important purpose in both their primary job, a simple and effective wall to create divide in many settings, but they will also offer longevity in their construction by being efficient drainage systems for the ground below them and an almost indestructible part of your garden’s vista.
This is the new cost-effective solution to building retaining walls which just happen to look even more attractive than perhaps their more expensive contemporary walls ever have been able to offer. It’s no wonder that they have become so very fashionable with celebrity gardeners, kitchen gardeners and industry gardeners the world over, and the trick to making them look as good as possible is to concentrate from the outside front face of the baskets in. To make sure the outside face is as attractive as possible leaves room for less desirable looking stones to hide, still providing all that Gabion Stone promises, inside the wall where they cannot be seen. This is achieved by ensuring that the Gabion Stone is hand-picked with individually bespoke combinations of a mosaic or desirable patterns of mis-matched glory to highlight the wall.
Of course, the rest of the stones, the bones and the body, don’t have to look fantastical at all, they can be any size, any shape, as long as the baskets are filled with Gabion then the wall will work as well on the inside as it looks on the out. Gabion stone is graded in accordance with industry guidelines so all the stones purchased for the project will be fitting and the most effective way of beginning a project with these types of walls is to have your go to retailer who can assist with both the stones, and the baskets which will house them. They make beautiful, modern back drops and centrepieces for an outdoor vista which will see everyone asking how you created your masterpiece of a wall.
