Closeup of stone tree ring planter and patio stone

The stone patio was built around protecting and a prominent backyard feature tree. A stone tree ring made with Mutual Materials Roman Stack® retaining wall blocks, and wide enough to include natural greenery plantings to create a natural foundational feature. Keeping the same color palette for stone, the Summit Blend color was chosen for the RomanStackstone, to color coordinate with the Summit Blend color of the Columbia Slate patio stone.
