Crushed granite is a durable, natural material made from mechanically breaking down granite rock into smaller pieces. It is widely used in landscaping for paths, driveways, and as a decorative ground cover. Crushed granite is favored for its attractive appearance, natural texture, and longevity, as it can withstand heavy foot traffic and exposure to the elements. It also provides excellent drainage and compacts well, making it a popular choice for creating stable surfaces.
