The structure comes with free rocks. Most everything I do in the garden to be comes with free rocks. I wasn't about to try and move these.
The Lush was given a haircut so that I can contemplate the new structure during the barren time of winter.
A planting bed takes shape around many things already planted in there. More weeding and more wood chip mulch will give it even more definition.
I can be a bad gardener, creating the garden beds around the plants I plant instead of doing it the right way and making the beds first then filling them with plants. The plants just follow me home faster than I can get to bed making.
It will all work out with time. I don't however recommend doing it this way for clients, nor do I suggest you try this yourself at home.

Hi Christopher! I love the extension of the bottle edging with the rocks, and I love how you have widened the bottle edging in parts. I need to bring you more wine bottles...are you running low?
Siria I have pretty much used up that huge pile of bottles. At this point I will be either a few short or have a few extra. Client #1 will provide me enough so no need for you to save any more. Then again this may need to be repeated elsewhere in the garden. Maybe.
I really like the look of the sunken wine bottles. You forget they are wine bottles. I know your garden will be beautiful no matter how you go about creating it. Have fun.
Once upon a time I had a mountain boy as a lover, who had a daddy, who taught me the phrase 'truck landscaping.' As in, things got planted wherever they were pulled off the back of a pickup truck. LOL. I, the rescuer of unwanted plants (some of them great big plants) have often created beds around these specimens. Love that wine bottle edging...
Christopher...just let me know and I will start saving bottles for you again.
Looking good, dear friend.
I like it. And a good excuse to drink.
