Product Information

A simple solution to stop erosion is creating a terraced garden complete with steps for easy plant care. Gardening on a slope can seem like a challenge, but hilly or sloped areas of your yard are perfect for creating terraced flower beds, rock gardens, and more. Hillside planters are modern solutions that allow homeowners to grow a terrace garden with their backyard slope. Made from a now-weathered dark brown concrete with a hint of rose, they feature a heavy dark grey aggregate on the exposed edges that works beautifully with grasses, sedum and trailing vines.

You can grow delicious vegetables and herbs even if your backyard is on a slope by building hillside planter boxes! I have been thinking about it a lot since tour day and am so glad I managed to see it (and also that Allan filled in with photos of the areas I did not attain).In this method, the lowest point in your outline will be the depth you’ll need to match for the whole footprint of your hillside planter boxes. The benefit to retaining walls is they divide your landscape into sections which can be beneficial to plants on a slope. I like planter boxes because they are very easy to access from all sides, and all you need is wood and nails to build them.
