[medit-plants] Re: "Urbanite" in the landscape

Medit-Planters,

I like how stacked concrete looks, especially when it is tinted with iron sulfate or some other colorant. to make it look more stone-like, this is best done before stacking them so that each piece is a slightly different color. i have plans to do just this next year when I have managed to find enough recycled concrete for my project.

Hey folks -

Curious to know of people's experiences using (or seeing) "urbanite" in the landscape.  Using recycled poured concrete paving has been around since the 1970s in California, and I know it is now used in other countries.  Wondering if you all might know of some stellar examples or situations relating to the use of this material.
