One of the simplest ways to connect these disparate regions in a yard is to build pathways. Some of the cheapest options include placing down gravel, wood chips or crushed stone, but with more time and energy to spend, you could also consider cut stone, concrete or bricks. In the latter case, it’s important to choose paving bricks rather than wall bricks, as these are more durable and are better suited for an outdoor environment. Ultimately, the material you choose should blend well with your landscape and the structures within it (such as your house).
