I’m going to be trying this, after a couple of years of playing around with small quantities of rock mulch. Tomorrow, I’m picking up a fair amount of crushed granite – will let you know how it works out.
This video provides an excellent overview of why it works.

I’d love to get a load of rock dust. I understand it’s so good for the soil. On another note…
Would you want to take part in some ‘tree following?” This is the first year I’m participating. Lucy of http://looseandleafy.blogspot.co.uk/p/what-is-tree-following-and-list-of-tree.html noted that most of the participants were from the UK and North America. Since you are one of a few ‘down-under’ bloggers that I follow, I thought it would be sort of neat to see what is blooming from your part of the world.

Oh nice one Dennis. I really hope this granite makes a difference to the quality of the soil. What’s the sand stone like for improving soil quality?
