Decorative Aggregate (3″ To 6″, Pea, Round)
Applications & Uses
Decorative Aggregate - Pea, Round, 3" to 6"
Decorative aggregate in a pea, round shape with a 3" to 6" size range is a premium landscaping material known for its smooth, naturally rounded stones. These aggregates are typically sourced from riverbeds or glacial deposits, where water action naturally polishes and rounds the stones over time.
The larger 3" to 6" size and round shape make this aggregate ideal for high-impact visual applications such as garden borders, dry creek beds, water features, and accent areas in both residential and commercial landscapes. The smooth, rounded surfaces are safer for foot traffic and less likely to cause injury compared to angular stone, while the substantial size helps prevent displacement by wind or rain. However, due to their size and shape, these stones are not suitable for compacted base layers or driveways, as they do not lock together. Instead, they excel in decorative roles, providing excellent drainage and a natural, polished look with minimal maintenance.
