Decorative Aggregate Cobble (3" to 6")

Decorative aggregate in a cobble form, sized between 3" to 6", is a natural stone product selected for its substantial size and visually striking appearance. These cobbles are typically sourced from riverbeds or quarries, then screened and sorted to ensure consistent sizing. The cobble attribute means each stone is rounded and smooth, making it both attractive and safe for use in high-visibility landscaping projects.

The 3" to 6" size range offers excellent coverage and stability, making these cobbles ideal for decorative borders, dry creek beds, garden accents, and erosion control. Their larger size prevents displacement, even in heavy rain, and reduces maintenance compared to smaller aggregates. While not suitable for compacted surfaces or pathways, these cobbles excel in applications where aesthetics and natural drainage are priorities. Their rounded shape and substantial size also make them a popular choice for water features and retaining wall accents, adding both texture and visual interest to residential and commercial landscapes.
