Properties of Granite
Granite is much heavier and stronger than limestone. Granite does not influence soil acidity. It comes in many natural hues and colours: pink, grey, greenish, black, etc. In the picture below is a large boulder of pink granite in our yard in Barrie:
Why are field stones round?
12,000 years ago, advancing glaciers pushed billions of tons of soil and rocks before them along thousands of miles. Many big and small granite boulders, rounded and polished by the glacier, can be found in many places since then. Geoscientists can study the path of prehistoric glaciers while investigating the fieldstones.
Your garden stone is a treasure
It is cute to have granite stones in your garden. These ancient stones deserve our admiration not only because they look great on the lawns. They witnessed the glacier, are watching your walk of life and will be observing your grandchildren's lives.
