River Rock (1.5″ To 3.5″)
Applications & Uses
River Rock in a 1.5" to 3.5" Size Range
River rock in a 1.5" to 3.5" size range is a naturally rounded stone sourced from riverbeds and stream banks. These stones are shaped and smoothed over time by water, resulting in a polished, attractive appearance. The larger size range makes this material ideal for projects where both aesthetics and function are important.
The 1.5" to 3.5" size provides excellent coverage for landscaping, erosion control, and decorative ground cover, while also allowing for good drainage. This makes river rock a popular choice for garden beds, dry creek beds, water features, and around patios or walkways. Its smooth, rounded surfaces are safer for bare feet compared to angular stone, but the larger size means it is not suitable for compacted surfaces like driveways. River rock is low-maintenance, resists fading, and adds a natural, timeless look to both residential and commercial landscapes.
