River Rock (1/2″, White)
Applications & Uses
White River Rock, 1/2" Size
White river rock in a 1/2" size range is a naturally rounded aggregate prized for its smooth texture and clean, bright appearance. Sourced from riverbeds, this material is shaped and polished by water over time, resulting in a uniform, attractive finish that stands out in landscaping and decorative applications.
The 1/2" size offers excellent versatility-small enough for easy handling and detailed work, yet large enough to provide effective ground cover and erosion control. Its rounded shape makes it comfortable for barefoot areas and reduces the risk of injury, making it ideal for pathways, garden beds, and play areas. The white color enhances light reflection, brightening up shaded spaces and adding a crisp, modern look to both residential and commercial projects. While river rock does not compact like crushed stone, it excels in drainage applications and requires minimal maintenance. This makes it a popular choice for decorative borders, dry creek beds, and as a mulch alternative.
