My love has a wonderful pool in his backyard. The yard needed some
love!I saw this on Pinterest months ago and was saving it knowing this
would definitely be my first project to making his backyard a little
more picturesque.
This was the beginning. I used 15 cinder blocks that we bought at Lowes for $1.34 each. I used 11 plants which I purchased at various places. We used a sheet of pavers (rubber) and Steve cut them to fit in the blocks for a bottom.
I tried to use a variety of colors plus I planted some basil, cilantro, and mint because I love fresh herbs! This is the top blocks.
The final product after watering! I was so happy with the outcome. There is a small flower bed to the right of this that I added 2 rose bushes to the elephant ears that are randomly blooming and some monkey grass along the edges. I added some river rocks to form a border. Also added some other touches of love around the yard. There is still quite a bit to do but we have made a good start! :)
