River Rock (2″)
Applications & Uses
2" River Rock
2" river rock is a naturally rounded stone sourced from riverbeds and streams, shaped over time by water flow. This material is prized for its smooth texture and consistent sizing, with each stone measuring approximately 2 inches in diameter.
The larger 2" size makes river rock ideal for decorative landscaping, erosion control, and drainage applications. Its substantial weight helps prevent displacement, making it suitable for use in garden beds, dry creek beds, and around water features. The rounded shape is gentle underfoot, reducing the risk of injury in play areas or pathways. While river rock does not compact like crushed stone, its excellent drainage properties make it a top choice for French drains and areas prone to standing water. However, its size can make it less suitable for driveways or surfaces requiring a stable, compacted base.
