Pea Gravel vs Crushed Gravel
The difference comes down to shape: rounded stone rolls, angular stone locks.
Pea gravel
- Rounded and smooth
- Comfortable underfoot
- Migrates without edging
- Good for paths, infill and decorative areas
Crushed gravel
- Angular and interlocking
- Stays in place under traffic
- Compacts into a firm surface
- Good for driveways and bases
Which to order
If vehicles will drive on it, choose crushed. If people will walk on it or you want the look, pea gravel usually wins.
