hypertufa 'border rocks'
21 years ago
Instead of loading the trunk with heavy lake rock, (more and more difficult to access the shore here anyways), I slopped a small spade full of mix into shopping bags, twisted shut, massaged the air out, let sit overnight, et voila! River rocks (or petrified dinosaur poop, as my hubby says) at 1/4 the weight of stone, and, IMHO, not too bad looking for edging.
