Here is a pic of the plans with plants that have been installed. I will do a series of close ups from Left to Right in the horseshoe.
I am in southern AZ in the mountains at 5300' elevation average highs in the 90's extreme lows @15. The soil is alkaline, and sandy/silty. I have been amending the soil in the terraced beds with home made compost of horse & chicken manure mixed with sawdust and oak leaves. It's been cooking for 3 years and is a deep rich black right now.
