Newly built cedar terraced retaining wall with integrated gravel steps on a sloped residential backyard under construction
This partially completed residential landscaping project features tiered natural cedar timber retaining walls that convert a steep sloped backyard into usable raised garden bed space. Integrated wooden staircase steps with dark gravel treads run diagonally through the tiered beds, creating easy access between planting levels, with young aloe and succulent specimens already placed in the lowest tier. The build sits in a sunlit suburban backyard, with a home, pergola patio, and palm trees visible in the background, a popular erosion-control solution for hillside gardening.
