Decorative Aggregate - Meramec, 5/8"

Decorative aggregate in a 5/8" size with a Meramec attribute is a premium, naturally rounded stone sourced from riverbeds, known for its smooth texture and warm, earthy tones. The Meramec variety is prized for its unique blend of tans, golds, and browns, making it an attractive choice for landscaping and architectural projects.

The 5/8" size strikes a balance between visual appeal and functional performance. Its moderate size provides excellent coverage while remaining easy to spread and maintain. The rounded Meramec stones are comfortable underfoot, making them ideal for pathways, patios, and play areas. Additionally, this aggregate offers superior drainage, making it suitable for garden beds, around trees, and in decorative borders. While not ideal for heavy load-bearing applications due to its smoothness and lack of compaction, Meramec decorative aggregate excels in enhancing curb appeal and creating inviting outdoor spaces.
