Cameron, this is what the glass looks like before it's washed. It's all unloaded, in the backyard, and now needs to be spread.

My garden in the back looks so messy, I wouldn't be able to let you in! Sad It takes me about a month to move and re-pot the pots!

I'm a neat freak in the garden, most everything is cleaned up already. Rolling my eyes. Still have to get my pots ready, I can't plant the annuals until the 24th of May. Sad

It starts out as beer bottles! Some times, I'll find a tiny piece of a label. It really keeps the weeds away from the paths. The tumbling helps to dull the edges of the glass pieces.

Doesn't it absorb and hold more heat than a wood mulch?

I use it down behind our pond in a shady area. I've also used it as ground cover on succulents to hold the heat. It lasts twice as long as mulch. I don't think it's for everyone, just works for me.

It doesn't look very shiny before the sand is washed but I've seen the after pictures so I know it is quite nice. I wonder if there is anything in this area.
