Red River Rock, 1" to 2"

Red river rock in a 1" to 2" size range is a naturally rounded aggregate sourced from riverbeds and stream deposits. Its distinctive red color adds a decorative touch, making it a popular choice for landscaping projects where visual appeal is important. The smooth, rounded surfaces are gentle underfoot and reduce the risk of injury, making this material ideal for pathways, garden beds, and play areas.

The 1" to 2" size range offers excellent drainage while remaining large enough to resist displacement by wind or water, making it suitable for use in French drains, dry creek beds, and erosion control. This size also provides good coverage for ground cover applications, reducing weed growth and soil erosion. While river rock does not compact like crushed stone, its stability and low maintenance requirements make it a preferred choice for both residential and commercial landscaping, decorative borders, and water features.
