Crushed Shell 20kg Bag

Will be available again January 2025. We apologise for delay, taking a little longer than we'd hoped for. Pre orders can still be processed online on a first in first served basis. 

Natural coastal ground-cover used largely as a decorative ground cover on top of garden paths to detail or protect. Crushed shell gives that beach appeal to your yard. Will naturally deteriorate very slowly over time, and as such will not need annual maintenance, the exception being in highly trafficked areas.

Size: Screened and washed through a 8-30mm screen.

Colour: Predominantly white with small creamy tones. Colour tones varies to include whites, browns and pink but dries to a bright white colour.

Source: New Zealand.

A timeless addition to any garden. Additional uses include pathways, pots and planter boxes. Lightweight and as such simple and easy to top up the contents every 3 to 5 years.

For a more sophisticated look, this product is ideally placed in between pavers in your patio area or also to create a petanque area. Smoother than white chip and softer than river pebbles, however the shells can still be quite sharp underfoot due to natural breakages and therefore it is advised to wear shoes or be cautious when walking over the top of it.

Benefits:

• Aesthetically pleasing in any landscape, often used in landscaping holiday homes and baches around the country.
• Instant coastal feel to any garden. Use as a mulch on top of weedmat and give your garden a beach styled look, particularly around the base of palms or native grasses.
• The brightness of the product will lift any tired areas in your garden. When used adjacent to pathways, it draws attention away from any flaws and filling up any vacant or empty areas and is very easy on the eye.

This product helps to establish a coastal feel to your yard and essentially brings the beach to your home. Combine or use with native grasses such as Carex Secta or Gossamer Grass. Additionally they bond well with cement to for use in exposed aggregate pathways.

Larger grades are available upon request which can include whole seashells if required.
