River Rock (1″)
Applications & Uses
1" River Rock
1" river rock is a naturally rounded stone sourced from riverbeds and stream deposits. Its smooth, weathered surface is the result of years of water erosion, making it distinct from crushed or angular aggregates. The 1-inch size range offers a balanced look-large enough to stay in place, yet small enough for versatile use.
This size is ideal for landscape beds, garden borders, and decorative ground cover, providing excellent drainage while minimizing weed growth. It's also commonly used in dry creek beds, around water features, and as a durable, low-maintenance alternative to mulch. The rounded shape is gentle underfoot, making it suitable for pathways and play areas. While river rock does not compact like crushed stone, its stability and aesthetic appeal make it a popular choice for both residential and commercial landscaping projects.
