Some of their substantial range includes:
GRANITE
Granite usually has a medium to course grained texture. Granites can be pink, yellow, or black in colour, depending on their chemistry and mineralogy. Granites are generally hard and tough in composition and therefore have gained widespread use as a construction stone. While greys and blacks are popular for construction, pink and yellow granites are softer in appearance, making them perfect for use in gardens both rustic and formal.
Granite is ideal for application around ponds, dry river beds, construction, feature rock, steps or pillars, and general garden applications. Rocks Plus carry a wide variety of sizes and shapes, including small or large pillars and columns.
MUD ROCK
Often referred to as River Mud Rock due to its sedimentary composition, Mud Rock comes in various shades of earthy brown. It is a fine-grained silty rock, derived from ancient deposits that can be split easily into thin plates along well defined planes. Mud Rock is extremely versatile in its applications, suitable for almost any landscape purpose.
Mud Rock is ideal for water features such as waterfalls, ponds, swimming pools, as well as paving, retaining walls and steps. Available in many different shapes, sizes and textures, Rocks Plus can also provide it in ‘feature’ sizes for fountains, memorial plaques, bench tops or seats.
HONEYCOMB ROCK
Also referred to as Volcanic Basalt Rock, Honeycomb Rock is a fine-grained dense rock, darkly coloured with a granular appearance. The honeycomb effect visible in this rock is a result of gas bubbles that exploded to form the holes on the outer surface of the rock. These holes often fill with mineral matter and over time grow moss, which gives them a ‘timeless’ aesthetic.
Ideal as a good all rounder for retaining walls, steps and water features, Honeycomb Rock is suitable for all domestic and commercial garden applications. Available in a variety of shapes, sizes and textures
Rocks Plus offers a delivery service, as well as referrals to award winning landscape designers, architects and landscaping contractors.
