3/8" River Rock - Blended Product

3/8" river rock in a blended product is a naturally rounded aggregate sourced from riverbeds and carefully screened to a uniform, small size. The "blended" attribute means this material contains a mix of stone types and subtle color variations, enhancing its visual appeal and versatility. The 3/8" size offers a fine, smooth texture that is comfortable underfoot and easy to spread evenly.

This river rock is ideal for residential and commercial landscaping, including pathways, garden beds, and decorative ground cover. Its small, rounded stones promote excellent drainage, making it suitable for use around plants or in French drains. The blended composition adds a natural, multi-toned look, perfect for accenting patios or water features. While its smoothness makes it less suitable for high-traffic driveways due to potential shifting, it excels in areas where aesthetics and drainage are priorities.
