Color

Maroon aka Red. NOTES: Bright red lava no longer exists. Some bags of bright red lava can be found at big box stores. These bags often contain brown lava rock that has been dyed. This Dye may affect your plants and wildlife. This can be verified by washing a bag in your drive and checking for red concrete stains. You hear stories of people installing red lava that mysteriously turns brown after one season because the dye rinses away over time. All of our products are natural and have not been dyed. We crush our own lava. This is the true test of color. If the inside and outside colors match we know its natural.
