A sliding ivy bank, rebuilt as a level garden
The back of this Magnolia lot was an ivy bank creeping down towards the house, with a weathered timber deck sitting on the only flat ground there was. The bank came out for a tiered block wall that holds the grade properly, and the space it gave back became a paver terrace off the house and a level turf lawn that drains. The two rows below are the same garden from the two ends.
