The Backwall Beds

This was my main project from last spring. It was the first bed(s) I ever built totally from scratch, and it spans about 70 feet.

Here are some “before” pics when I had started on the left rock bed, had begun moving rocks in, and was laying out a plan of attack.

Here are the beds beginning to take shape.

Here is what it looks like now.
The end rock beds and the cedar mulch beds have many things that have yet to sprout. The plastic circles in the middle rock bed are placeholders pots for my large agaves when I bring them back outside.
