Polystyrene rocks?

I have some sites on this that are listed below. What sites do you think have the best method that will last the longest. i hope it lasts forever, but i am not so sure. Also, what color is natural in the outback? i was wondering because the cliff will be for a bearded dragon and i want to know what color the rock is in that region of the world. Here are the sites:

Bearded Dragons inhabit a very extensive range in Australia. The geology throughout their range varies, just as you would see anywhere else on the planet. Therefore, there is no single color of outcroppings where bearded dragons live, nor is there a uniform geological 'species' (type of rock) throughout the range.

Coloration and minor aesthetics are not what's important to such a lizard, it is the functionality of the structure which is important. Aesthetics is something that we the keeper are more concerned about than the animals themselves; they are interested in what's usable to them.

"The Outback" is a very big place, where there is no widespread uniformity, therefore there is no answer to your query.

Good luck,

Bob
