We'd like to use the French style-white-ish gravel that you see at Versailles and in traditional French garden pathways. I think that is what we want to use, but perhaps someone here can recommend something better? One of my concerns is that I don't want something too fine so as to also collect easy on shoes/dogs. I think I want something that is larger in size so as to prevent water from collecting and puddling on it (i.e, allows water to drain under and away). Any thoughts with specific gravel product names or types sure would be appreciated! Quote \| Reply \| Report
