Blake,

I got some from a place called RedDome. They have a website at
www.reddome.com and they sell crushed lava for bonsai on Ebay -
http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZreddomelava Or email Lee Miller
directly, he'll bend over backwards to get you
what you want.

Drystall is actually pumice. I used it for awhile and didn't
like it much. I prefer more porous stone like the cinder type
lava rock. I think that is what Blake is looking for. Roofing
companies sometimes have it for stone covering of flat roofs.

Could anyone (particularly those in the Hosuton, TX

where to find crushed lava for use in potting mixes.
I've checked most of
the horticultural and stone/gravel/sand supply places

around town and
no one has any idea. I can find large decorative chunks -

do I just
have to crush it myself? YIKES!

Thanks!
