Plum Slate Chippings 20mm
Our Welsh Plum Slate Chippings 20mm are sourced directly from the Quarry in Caernarfon, North Wales.
Plum Slate Chippings 20mm decorative aggregates boast beautiful purple/blue colours that deepen when wet.
If you are attempting to match your previously laid plum slate to top up or extend the area, please order a sample before your main purchase.
Perfect for footpaths & more!
Also known as purple slate chippings, plum slate decorative aggregates are ideal for garden pathways, borders, flower beds, rockeries, ornamental water features, fishponds and pot toppers. Our plum slate chippings are fish-friendly!
Graded at 20mm, plum slate chippings are a great choice for footpaths as the shape and size means they bed together well for a comfortable walking surface. Once laid, the smaller pieces will form a mulch bed with the larger and more decorative pieces on display.
Beyond their aesthetic charm, and beatiful rich colour, plum slate plays a practical role by aiding in weed prevention and retaining soil moisture during dry periods, making them a valuable choice for gardeners.
Plum Slate Useful Tip
