Josh_S Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Stone and water world on marua rd is good for some great looking rocks and substrates. I got these, but they have lots of different sorts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trilobite Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Theres lots of schist, slate and gneiss in NZ. Wouldnt it be cheaper to find some near a mountain. I got a bundle of schist from the west coast in the south island but I dont know where anything would be up north though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

River or landscaping supplier would be my suggestion. Yellowpages.co.nz lists 138 landscape suppliers in Auckland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrienne Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Definitely stone and water world - you will find all these and more in any quantity you want. They are well priced too, not over the top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix44 Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 You can get South Island schist from any good landscaping place. It's dirt cheap and is very commonly used in newer homes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 It is readily available on the side of the road in many places down here but suspect landscapers would be your best bet up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirio Posted February 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 Yeah, it would be nice if i could aquire it that way. I've taken look at the Stone And Water world website and i'm going to go for the rose http://www.stoneworld.co.nz/wawcs0112245/Paving-Stone.html It's $1 a KG, so i guess it's not too bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
