We had to put ours down rather thick since the terrace slopes to bring it all to the same grade height, we probably have 4-6 inches depending on the location. You might not need as much depth. I would suggest that you take your measurements of the space to your local stone yard/landscape supply and tell them what you are trying to achieve and they'll be able to figure out exactly how much you need. You'll also be able to see the available colors in your area. for the love of a househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13151787635612708698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6005324767450032096.post-53242133097972150672012-08-13T00:21:51.066-04:002012-08-13T00:21:51.066-04:00Joan - I was raised in Maine & lived in Conroe...Joan - I was raised in Maine & lived in Conroe, TX for 4 years. Your charming southern roots do wonderful justice to the beauty of NH. Thank you so much for sharing. Could you possibly tell me the approx. amount of pea gravel you used on the terrace? I currently live in Virginia and have a spot that is in desperate need of pea gravel, but I'm not sure of the depth or amount to start with.<br /><br />You can get there....ya'all ;-)<br />StephanieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6005324767450032096.post-47389124941939256302012-08-12T10:32:39.932-04:002012-08-12T10:32:39.932-04:00It looks beautiful!
