Evelyn, I think this is what you need to do. Look at the size of this boulder. They were brought in on a flat bed and moved with equipment that lifted them into the air and then placed into the landscape. This boulder is on the north side of a very large planter that is raised 3' from the sidewalk. There are over 10 Boulders this size making this bed but you do not see all the boulders. The boulders were free, the cost was picking them up and placing them in the landscape. I had blow sand (Nevada Dirt) so my idea was to raise the beds and then compost on the spot to create good soil. We built the house 9 years ago and I am still running into bad dirt. But that is because i insist on making more beds. I promised myself I am done with that. I did have each bed filled with landscape soil. It was somewhat better than blow sand but not even close to what I have today. That is why my worms are my best friends. When I dig and run into very large amounts of worms and their families, I know my soil is healthy, so my plants are happy.
