Backyard Rain Garden
A dry stream bed was designed and installed to drain water away from the lawn and house, so the lower border planting bed would not get flooded in the winter. River rock and larger accent boulders were used to create the dry stream bed. It's edged with steel next to the lawn and an existing stone retaining wall on the other. Evergreen shrubs were planted to soften the fence and function as a privacy hedge.
