LANDSCAPE INDUSTRY NEWS
NEW FROM THE YARD
Southern California landscape supplier KRC Rock has published its 2026 Boulders Catalog, a color-organized guide to 14 natural stone varieties for contractors, designers and homeowners.
The San Marcos-based company, which recently marked 40 years serving the region’s residential and commercial landscape market, lists each stone by the range of colors buyers can expect, since no two boulders are exactly alike.
A STONE FOR EVERY SETTING
KRC’s 2026 lineup runs from warm Baja Red and Honey Quartz to cool Blue Moon and Desert Marble, with a large middle ground of golds and tans like California Gold, Sunrise and Twin Oaks. The company lists focal points, retaining accents, dry creek beds and water features among the most common uses.
The Color Families
FOUR WAYS TO SET THE TONE
WARM REDS
Baja Red and Honey Quartz bring rust and gold tones that pop against green plantings.
GOLDS & TANS
California Gold, Sunrise, Twin Oaks and Napa Canyon blend naturally with native landscapes.
COOL GREYS
Blue Moon, Desert Marble and Montana Moss pair well with modern hardscapes.
STATEMENT STONE
Glacier Turquoise’s blue-green faces make it a natural focal piece.
