We decided that the patio needed an actual retaining wall. The rain was slowly eroding the gravel out from under my bricks that I had put down.
So - a cheap and affordable solution was cinder blocks. I will fill the holes between the bricks (the straight parts)on the two sides with cement for access on and off the patio. The rest of the holes I will fill with dirt, and plant with some kind of ground creeper flowers (moss roses maybe - they grow nice and low and there are lots of colors). I will do all of the holes, except the short straight part that runs parallel to the house (by the tree), that is where the bbq will sit, and I don't think stuff will grow there. But we will see.
This is as far as I will go this week, next week I will do the concrete and start with the stones again. I need 4 days in a row at home where I can keep the concrete wet while it cures. And we are going camping this weekend, so next week it will be.
No products have been added to this project.
Thanks for spreading positivity!
