What happens here

Two types of raised planter beds are constructed around the house: a curved, elongated bed and a large circular bed. These beds are built using modular paver blocks designed for retaining walls, ensuring structural integrity and a cohesive look with the other hardscaping elements. Each bed is lined with landscape fabric to prevent weed growth and then filled with rubber mulch, some of which is reused from the pre-existing landscape. The beds are prepared for future planting, with the narrator suggesting plants will be added in the following year.

Goal: Create defined and low-maintenance planting areas around the house.
