River Rock (1.5″)
Applications & Uses
1.5" River Rock
1.5" 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 both visually appealing and comfortable to handle. The 1.5-inch size offers a substantial presence, providing excellent coverage while remaining manageable for installation.
This size is ideal for decorative landscaping, garden borders, dry creek beds, and erosion control. Its rounded shape allows for superior drainage, making it a popular choice for French drains and around downspouts. Unlike smaller gravel, 1.5" river rock is less likely to migrate or compact, ensuring long-lasting performance in high-traffic areas. While it is not suitable for driveways requiring a compacted base, its durability and low maintenance make it a preferred option for both residential and commercial landscape projects.
