The pebbles are just a layer, underneath is good ol' dirt.

Pebbles are often put on top of cactus sand for looks, to protect wind from blowing dirt out, and a little bit of help to prevent water evaporation.

I do that with my cactus plants, but that's mostly because the squirrels and stray cats around here like to play around with loose soil. I came out to my cacti one day to find a few of my plants flipped over in the soil, and a big cat turd in the soil. I was not a happy camper.
