It really depends on what kinds of rocks you want. You can have those volcanic rocks from ebay, they are quite cheap as long as you have a strong vehicle to carry them around. I picked up some about 50 of those rocks free from my neighbour, they are 200 meters from my place, beautiful rocks with irregular shapes, i was very happy with them, great for the garden, very heavy, could be used to stop the soil moving, but you have to use mortar to paste them together(I used concrete, but that doesn't look very nice, and am thinking of paste another layer of mortar to cover the concrete next year).
By the way, you have to prepare for yourself, i thought i am tough and strong enough, but, man, one rock weighs least 20kgs, and you do it for 50 rocks, it took me 20 more trips to carry them home with my wheelbarrow (we live in a little hillside), and i got them done in two mornings before work and two nights after work (note: these rocks are very popular with garden lovers, the same neighbour put 20 rocks in the nature strip before, and i just hesitated for 2 days because i was bit lazy, and guess what, they were gone when i was ready to get them). I need some more of these rocks to finish another small part of my front garden, but haven't found free ones around, also i don't have a ute of pick up truck, so i can not really buy them from ebay.
Go for the volcanic rocks, they look great, and make your garden so much different.
I got my garden done with those rocks in a month, hard work, i did it in summer, i just remembered that after this garden experience, i realised how important the sunscreen is in Australia. Everytime i saw my neighbours, or my neighbours saw me, they mention to me that my garden looks great.

Really appreciated. I needed some pebbles, my backyard is not big enough to have the rocks. One rock weighs 20kgs? Jesus cries, you know what, I weigh as much as two this kind of rocks, guess I’ll have to put some weight to be strong enough to carry them. LOL.
Show us your beautiful garden if you don’t mind. :)

I have taken some photos for my new garden from time to time, because we just put some mulch on the soil bed. The mulch is free from a number of places and people as well. In the last couple of days, i have tried to sort out all the photos i have for my garden, (before the rebuild, during the rebuild and after the rebuild). We are going to put them together and then choose one representative for each period mentioned above in the brackets, print them out and frame them, so we will have a beautiful memory of our front garden changes. But i have found that some photos i took are actually from my phone camera, the quality is really an issue, and also the angles are different (I am no camera guy, so don't know much about the photo things). I often see the paper says the possibility of smartphone camera might replace the real camera, i would tell them, it is time for you guys to wake up and have a cool shower, the phone camera will never ever take over the real camera, they are just two different objectives. Please don't laugh me, from time to time, i would stand in front of my garden in the early morning before work, and smile, feel so proud of us finishing the garden, and i have told my boss and colleagues i had the best garden in my street, no kidding.
Sorry i can not give you a photo right now, but might sent you a photo into your message.

I totally agree with you, you cannot eat the cake and have it, phone camera could replace the real camera, but for laymen only.
Couldn’t wait to see your garden, curiosity kills the cat.
