Hi all,
Just wondering if anybody knows where I can pick up a bag of 2-5mm scoria (or similiar) in Melbourne?
My usual guy doesn't have stock and I can't seem to find anyone else who supplies it.
2-5mm Scoria?

I have bought 2 - 8 mm at Bunnings on occasions. They don't always stock that size at the local store but I keep my eye out each time I go.

Thanks Watto/Ken for your input, and to those who PM’d me with some options. Much appreciated!
I’ll be getting onto it ASAP.

Re: 2-5mm Scoria?
Trev at Bonsai Art has bags - perfect size and pretty reasonable with regards to cost. I've been screening it down myself from the garden centers which they're more than happy for me to do but buying it from Trev, is just easier.
