I was hoping that someone would know of a good source for high quality granite rock for my planned japanese garden. Location is Vancouver BC. Any assistance would be most appreciated.
Send me a PM, I just found source of really nice weathered granite with moss, im going to use them for my own Japanese garden soon.
If you haven't yet found your rocks, how about a drive up past Horseshoe Bay and Lions Bay. All that roadbuilding and blasting must have yielded something.
I think Lawn Boy or Lawnboy Landscaping has granite. They are at the bottom of Cambie, about a half a block north of Kent (could never find them in any directory so can't pass on the phone # unfortunately). They have aggregate, compost, soil etc. you can purchase by the garbage bag full or yard. I like the sea to sky scavanging idea though....
Blasted rocks are a little too harsh in my opinion. I use them for retaining walls, but for a landscape project, there are much nicer weathered options. ;)
