Walls that grow something beautiful.

- Height: 12 to 36 in. typical
- Materials: Block, stone, veneer
- Drainage: Weep paths and gravel base
What it is, and why it matters.
A low garden wall gives a bed a clean edge, lifts roots out of heavy clay and keeps mulch and soil where they belong. Raised planters bring vegetables and flowers to a comfortable height and can be shaped to match the patio or house. We build them in matching block, natural stone or brick-toned veneer on a proper footing with drainage so they last.
Many Nashville yards struggle with compacted clay and standing water. Raised beds with good drainage and fresh soil are a practical fix and a design opportunity: curves, steps, wide caps for sitting and integrated lighting.
Four things done right.
Lifts roots out of clay
Better drainage and easier planting.
Clean, lasting edges
Mulch and soil stay in place.
Comfortable height
Less bending for the gardener.
Matches the house
Materials coordinated with the hardscape.

Garden Walls & Raised Planters: common questions
How tall should a raised bed be?
Twelve to eighteen inches suits most gardens; 30 inches or more is easier on the back. We size to the plants and the gardener.
Do raised beds need drainage?
Yes. A gravel base and weep paths keep roots from sitting in water and protect the wall.
