Lava Rock

Lava rock, also known as volcanic rock, is a lightweight, porous material formed from solidified lava. It is commonly used in landscaping for mulching, decorative ground cover, and as an element in fire pits due to its ability to withstand high temperatures. Lava rock is available in various sizes and colors, typically ranging from red and black to brown and gray, making it a versatile choice for adding texture and contrast to garden beds, pathways, and rock gardens. The porous nature of lava rock allows it to retain moisture, which can benefit plant health by maintaining consistent soil moisture levels. Additionally, lava rock's light weight makes it easy to handle and install. However, its rough texture can make it uncomfortable to walk on, so it is often used in areas where foot traffic is minimal. Lava rock also has the advantage of being long-lasting, as it does not decompose or break down over time, reducing the need for replacement. This durability, combined with its striking appearance, makes lava rock a popular choice for both functional and decorative uses in landscaping projects.
