Flagstone is known and loved for its rich texture in a broad range of colors – browns, grays, gold, and blues. It’s a great choice for a more rustic look, and it preserves a green and earthy element in your landscaped area.

Mataki na Sama tare da Bluestone

Many may not know that bluestone is technically a form of flagstone. This sedimentary rock is formed by the fusing of particles deposited by rivers, oceans, and lakes. It typically has a moderately textured surface. Bluestone comes in bluish and gray shades, but ‘full color’ has other tones mixed in.

Bluestone is sturdier. It comes in natural cleft and select grades. It’s a bit more resilient against elements, making it weather-resistant. Bluestone guarantees a classic look, even among plants and other greenery.

The downside of bluestone? It’s a bit more expensive and has a more formal look.

If you’re still not sure which stone to use for your landscaping project, think of what your stone will be regularly exposed to. If the stone is near a pool, your best bet is to go with bluestone. It’s important to keep in mind that bluestone is a dark-colored stone that retains more heat than lighter-colored flagstones and can be the more expensive option between the two.
