This was initially a steep slope in a front yard that was covered with grass and weeds.We built two weathered steel retaining walls to create three terraces made accessible by steel-framed steps filled with gravel and a flagstone paver path. The terraces that are flanked by beautiful drought resistant plants complete with drip irrigation make this front yard not only aesthetically pleasing and environmentally friendly, but most importantly, usable!

Nutsedge is one of the more prolific and persistant weeds we have here in North Texas. They thrive in compacted, poorly draining soils or beds that are overwatered or have irrigation leaks. If you've had an increasing problem with nutsedge then your soil is probably too compacted and may be staying too wet.
