DRY CREEK BED

We offer a variety of round rock products perfect for building running water features, ponds as well as dry creek beds.

Dry Creek Bed Materials

Dry streams are a unique, sustainable way to incorporate natural rock in a garden and address poor drainage issues. Made to look like a babbling brook, they do not usually contain water, but instead channel and collect rainwater, allowing it to percolate into the ground slowly. They are inherently shallow depressions in the earth designed to slow and capture runoff. Each creek is slightly different, depending on the area, the rocks used, and the conditions.

Customers have used:

• Most beds are filled with an 8-12” base layer of our washed 7/8 or washed 1 1/2 drain rock wrapped in filter fabric. The gravel absorbs excess rainwater.
• Then place a thin layer of our 2-6" cobble rock for a decorative look. 
• Our Rockery rock is often used for the edging and varies in size.
