Bowland Stone Plum Slate, 750kg Bulk Bag

Bowland Stone plum slate chippings are crushed, naturally coloured slate pieces for gardeners who want to add colour, texture and interest to beds, borders and water features. This 750kg bulk bag covers large or small landscaping projects. The plum tones darken and shine when wet, so the garden looks richer every time it rains, and the slate is fish friendly for ponds.

Natural Slate Outshines Flat Gravel

Plain gravel can look dull and uniform, especially on a grey day. Plum slate brings deep, natural colour that becomes more intense when wet, so borders look polished after every shower. Because it is a natural product, expect some variation in colour and size, which gives a more authentic finish than a uniform aggregate. It is ideal for raised beds, borders and general landscaping, and its fish friendly nature makes it suitable around ponds and water features. A single 750kg bulk bag means fewer trips and fewer bags to dispose of.

Why Plum Slate Chippings Work

  • Colour deepens when wet: Rain turns the plum tones darker and glossier, adding life to borders in wet weather.
  • Fish friendly: Suitable for ponds and water features, so you can dress the edges with confidence.
  • Two sizes: Choose 20mm for finer borders and paths or 40mm for bolder, chunkier landscaping features and pond surrounds.
  • Bulk 750kg bag: Approximately 750kg arriving in one delivery makes larger landscaping projects simpler to plan and finish.
