Abstract: An all purpose ground cover is presented for use in a landscape, walk or pathway, driveway or roadway, or other application. The ground cover includes a plurality of particles of stone, gravel or aggregate material, mulch or wood chips, or other natural and/or artificial materials and combinations thereof, mixed with an adhesive or bonding agent to form a coated material that can be easily installed within a portion of an area of application. For example, the coated material, which is moist and pliable before curing, may be shoveled and then raked level in a desired position within the landscape, walk or pathway, driveway or roadway application. Once the adhesive agent cures and hardens the coated material including the plurality of particles is substantially fastened and held together to provide the ground cover.
