How to Lay a Bluestone Patio

Finish the natural look of the patio by planting moss or other plants that can be tread on between the stones.

Hose down the patio to help lock in the stones. Using a garden spade, remove excess pockets of sand in the joints and replace with excavated soil (indigenous moss often prefers this soil to rich potting soil). Clear the stones of excess sand and soil with a push broom.
