Limestone pavers are made of several components, fossils of marine animals and sediments called calcium carbonate. This is created by lime discharge from sea coral and left on the sea beds. Limestone is a quarried stone which means that it can be cut into any desired size for perhaps coping or random sized pavers.
There are many different stone quarries to get limestone from, so this ensures a wide variety of shapes, texture, veining and color variations. One of the best parts about using natural stone like Limestone is the wide variety of colors that are offered from whites and beiges, to orange, reds and terra cottas, to browns, to pinks, coppers, grays and blues. The fact that Limestone is a very strong stone; its uses are wide range such as: driveways, countertops, veneer, patios and building structures. Limestone can also come in different finishes depending on where you get the Limestone and what you are using it for.
Limestone application is the same as pavers, these pavers come in many custom shapes to fit any application, like fireplaces or coping. Garden ornaments, table, benches and flower pots.

Landscape on Grandview lane Smithtown pines.
As you enter the driveway there are Hollis to the right, under a very shady area. The idea was to create a natural landscape with some flowering to add color and to fill the area with plants that surround the mailbox. The soil was a rich-based hence no soil preparation was necessary. Next there are holly trees, pines trees and ever greens to create a border that will grow to be large and blend in with the older pine trees. There are several bed areas filled with a variety of plants that are suitable for this shady area. The wrought iron gates lead to a greater entrance. There is a focal point to the left; a beautiful arch with a bench that has been enhanced with a gorgeous hot-pink Camilla. This is a fast growing plant that was planted in early may and took over the entire arch within 5 months. These blooming flowers have created a warm and picture scenery that can capture an outstanding photo.
