Cool rock!

17 years ago

I collected this rock from the woods a few weeks back. I was thinking of using it for root-over-rock, but it's too tall and wide. Then, I thought of using it for a forest planting, but it doesn't have enough of a bowl shape. Hmmm... Anyways, I just wanted to show you!

Perfectly (almost) flat, by the way.

Very cool find! You can still plant on it, but you may have to build up a muck edge to keep the soil in place. You'd probably want to go with a chunkier forest with thicker trunks and a generally heavier feeling, given the thickness of the slab. (Smaller/lighter plantings may be overwhelmed).
