Yes please, we have a retaining wall dilemma & have bought 2 round tanks but yours are ace! I saw you website a while back & put it in the too hard basket case, lol! Message on my profile works fine thanks David, cheers LouieT

After staring at your pics a few times I think I've figured out what's bothering me. The garden bed sticks forward. If you need it for the size of plants in the ground it might work but if you're only going to have pots you can line the edge up with the wall of the house I think? What is the depth of the garden bed? Colour and placement of the pots. The pots look terracotta and the brickwork looks more reddish, is that right? It doesn't look like it goes together. Maybe you can use those pots somewhere else where they aren't right beside the brickwork and get some pots for that location which are either darker and match the trims of the house or are lighter and contrast with the house more. I think the pots need to somehow relate to the windows. If that room could use some privacy or shade you could put two pots in front of the windows. If you want to preserve the view out then you could put three pots against the brickwork. The mulch. It looks too low for the edging. (What is the edging?) The colour, like with the pots, doesn't look like it goes with the rest. I'd go black pebbles or something light in a similar hue to the stone foundation feature. Or maybe scoria?

hahaha tribbletrouble...U kill me :)) No charge - every week they have a free consultant at my local dulux paint shop :) Question - Do you think Surfmist matches with Colorbond Dune ?

I agree with pottsy99's approach. I'd paint the concrete portions of the wall. Depends what the colour scheme of your garden is - charcoal might suit. Personally, I love off-white but it might not go. Whatever colour you go with, I'd also paint the terracotta pots to have more cohesion. At that point, you might consider leaving the stones alone (perhaps a tidy up if you're feeling energetic.) You could also go for weeping plants. Dichondra silver falls are my favourites. They are also relatively easy to propagate and grow. However, mine always die during the Perth summer heat. Heartleaf iceplant are also easy to grow, propagate and hardy but does attract snails.
