River Rock, 2.5" Size Range, Multicolor

River rock in a 2.5" size range is a naturally rounded, multicolored stone sourced from riverbeds and stream banks. Its smooth texture and vibrant mix of earth tones make it both functional and visually appealing. The larger 2.5" size offers excellent coverage and stability, making it less likely to shift or wash away compared to smaller aggregates.

This material is ideal for decorative landscaping, garden borders, dry creek beds, and erosion control. Its size and rounded shape allow for superior drainage, making it a popular choice for French drains and around downspouts. While river rock is not suitable for compacted surfaces like driveways, its aesthetic appeal and low maintenance requirements make it a favorite for residential and commercial landscape projects. The multicolor palette enhances curb appeal, but the larger stones may be less comfortable for walking paths.
