Retaining Wall Re-Do



Cross another item off my honey-do list!

I finally redid my paver block retaining wall yesterday.  I neglected to take a before picture, my apologies. I built the original wall with two scalloped arches.  This wasn't too appealing to me and became even less over the years, plus it offered a challenge when it came to mowing the lawn.

Now it's one long arch and looks much better and will make mowing a cinch.  I also added an additional layer of pavers making the wall taller.  Two heaping wheelbarrows full of beautiful, rich compost added to top the bed off nicely.  I hope the perennials approve.  I do!
