What happens here

This project details the critical steps for creating a planting bed within a raised patio structure, specifically focusing on how to properly manage drainage behind retaining walls. It covers the layering of drainstone, geotextile fabric, and planting soil, and the integration of a perforated drain pipe to prevent water from being trapped, thus safeguarding the retaining wall from damage due to freeze-thaw cycles.
