Shale is a fine-grained sedimentary rock that is often used in landscaping as a decorative stone or ground cover. It is typically found in shades of gray, black, red, or brown and has a layered, flaky structure. Shale is commonly used for paths, driveways, and in garden beds to suppress weeds and improve aesthetics. It is also used in constructing retaining walls and as a base material in various landscaping projects. Shale's natural appearance and color variation make it a popular choice for rustic and naturalistic landscapes. However, shale can be brittle and may break down over time, especially in areas with heavy foot traffic.
