I think it came out GREAT! a couple hours with my saw and nail gun and it was done.

I am actually thinking of removing the container plants and planting raised beds around the sides ? or I may build some long planters

Maybe make a path to it from the deck or somewhere, to help it look like it's related to other parts of your landscape? Put some of the containers of red flowers on the deck also, to tie things together?

It's ALWAYS a work in progress :) . I've been gardening in one spot for 8 yrs and it's definitely still a work in progress. But you are off to a great start!

It's just beautiful, Matt. You've come back from Katrina's devastation and made something beautiful.
