GRANITE
A very hard form of igneous stone that’s regionally available from ancient volcanic deposits found mostly in the Llano Uplift region of Texas.
DECOMPOSED VS. CRUSHED + WASHED
Decomposed granite is very much like sand or soil without the organic matter. DG, as the stuff’s often called, has a mixture of grain sizes, including the fine stuff. Caution: DG is a bit muddy when wet. The crushed + washed variety is cleaner because the fines have been removed, but feels a bit like pea gravel underfoot.

DESIGN SUPPORT
Granite is widely suitable as either active (occassional to high human programmed usage) or passive usage. Due to coloration, heat-gain in full sun is low. Albedo (light reflectivity) is low. Granite has a range of color from pink to rusty brown.
