Where can i find some stone or rock?

14 years ago

I am starting a water fountain for my pond and I need stone and rock. My budget are very limited so it be good if it is for free. Anyone got some for free? or where can I get some for free/cheap?

Are there any subdivisions being built near you? Ten years ago, some builder was clearing forest for a bunch of houses (sad.)

We went one day while they were working and asked permission to scavenge stones after hours. They were happy to have us take them.

Maybe you can do something like that.

Good luck!

Try Craigslist. My kind friend found me many nice things on Craigslist.

Soultan, the Papilio bulb I bought on eBay is growing in a 4" pot, and it's about the size of a golf ball... hardly blooming size... I was under the distinct impression that blooming sized Papilio were around $20.00... that's what Royal Colors sells theirs for... and those bulbs are very large in comparison to the one I got on eBay! I could be mistaken about the size requirement and age for the Papilio to bloom, but I'm not counting on my smaller bulb blooming for at least another year...

I am late to this conversation, but I have some teak to sell after I changed my mind about our flooring. It’s not the same pattern as Haddon but it is a parquet and it’s never been installed.

There is also a website called Freecycle. I don't know if it's a dot com or dot org. But it is all free stuff that people want to get rid of!
