ABSTRACT:
This invention provides an interlocking ground covering element, the shape of which is an abstraction of the shape of the state of Texas. The interlocking of multiple adjacent elements is obtained by the inherent projections and recesses comprising the element's shape. The elements can be used to cover horizontal surfaces as in paving or vertical surfaces as seen in retaining walls.
