Decorative Gravel & Pea Stone
Upper Delaware River 3/8″ Washed Pea Gravel
Also known as: Pea Stone, Washed Pea Gravel, Delaware River Gravel, River Rock
3/8" Washed Pea Gravel is a small, naturally rounded stone pulled from the Upper Delaware River and washed clean of dust and fines. The stones run about pea-sized in a mix of earthy tones - grays, tans, browns, and reds - that read warm and finished in a landscape setting. It's a go-to for pathways, patios, garden beds, and any spot where you want a smooth, decorative ground cover that still lets water through.

Why It Works
Smooth underfoot, easy on the eye, drains clean.
The stones are rounded by the river, not crushed, so the edges are smooth and comfortable to walk on barefoot or in sandals. That’s what makes 3/8″ pea gravel a natural fit for paths, patios, and the ground around a pool or fire pit. The 3/8″ size is small enough to feel even underfoot but large enough to stay put better than a finer stone.
Because it’s washed, there’s no dust or fines clinging to the stone – it stays clean, the color shows true, and water moves through it instead of pooling on top. The Upper Delaware River color blend gives you grays, tans, browns, and reds in one material, so it works with brick, bluestone, or plantings without fighting them.
