Here are some facts to consider about retaining walls before dismissing them completely:
- A retaining wall is not just practical from a construction standpoint, but serves an attractive landscaping element
- If you don’t want to think of a retaining wall as that, then you can think of it as flower garden wall
- Retaining walls, when constructed right, are designed specifically to retain the soil behind them
- The same blocks used for these walls can be used for matching stairs that are integrated into the design
- The success of any wall lies in the way it’s constructed
