Tumbled, recycled glass (with no sharp edges) can be integrated into landscapes to create striking focal points.  Imagine its use in fountains, fire-pits, fish ponds, pathways, mulch beds and gardens.  Add color to beautify desert-scapes without the use of thirsty plants!  From post-consumer bottles to post-industrial window scraps, recycled glass is available in a wide variety of colors and sizes for all sorts of applications.

Since glass takes about 1000 years to decompose, recycling is the perfect solution.  It’s ideal in the landscape too, since it doesn’t fade or need replacing year after year.  Plus, it’s a deterrent to garden pests, such as slugs, since they don’t like to crawl on it!
