Limestone, fieldstone, river rock and flagstone: which stone looks right, how it behaves in water and how it is set.
Stone sets the character of a water feature. Large boulders give it weight and age, flat ledge stone makes falls, and river rock lines the stream bed. The right mix looks as though it was always there.
Limestone is common in Middle Tennessee and looks right in a local setting, though it can raise water hardness slightly. Fieldstone has rich color and lichen. River rock is smooth and rounded and works for streambeds. Flagstone makes paths, patios and falls.
