Re: garden wall progress

Wow, Theresa, that is a major wall!  Looks great.   You have some
lovely pix and I am quite jealous of your yellow Clivia:-)

One thing I forgot to mention is to make sure you don't put your fill
up against that tree trunk - hold it back about 6" all the way around
the trunk.  Otherwise, you're asking for major trunk rot to set in.

You guys have done a whale of a job there!
