I bought this to replace my grass on my front garden.
Initially I was extremely disappointed as the colour was just 2 shades of grey with just a few white stones here and there... I was ready to take photos and write a complaint...

Our 40mm Plum Slate Chippings are recycled in the UK from the roofing industry. The deep plum colour offers a striking and bold appearance, adding character to any garden. The flat, angular shape gives a contemporary, stylish finish while helping to retain moisture in borders and planters, yet still allowing water to pass through to support plants and wildlife.Due to green slate being a naturally quarried product, there may be slight variations in formation, size, colour or shape - including a natural red-ish vein.
MOT Type 1 has crushed gravel stones that form the sublayer for road surfaces and pathways. Hardwearing, this gravel provides a load bearing stable layer and a flat surface prior to a top coating of asphalt, concrete, shingle or block paving. The fine mixture also ensures minimal voids in the sublayer when compacted.
