A retaining wall can create an additional dynamic for your yard’s aesthetic.
Sometimes, it’s good to be held back. Especially when it’s a retaining wall holding back soil and water from flowing into your yard. To that end, the following are some yard tips that you can use to design a stunning retaining wall that brings a touch of flair to your yard.
Start by ditching the straight lines. Design a retaining wall that curves gently across the landscape. This will give it a touch of personality, and when coupled with a walkway, it will create a relaxing path that you will enjoy walking through. Along the way, you can install a water feature or two that will help tie the wall to the natural environment.
If you have a larger retaining wall, incorporate stairs through the wall to the higher ground. Along the stairs, place planters or flower boxes where your roses, shrubs, or poinsettias can grow and guide you along the way.
