Choose similar plants, but make sure they do not grow much higher than the window. When you look out of the window you can see the top of the plant, flowers. Not the bare inside part.

Orange circles are stepping stones. These could be brick or concrete to match existing materials that are nearby, or could be stone the same color as the retaining wall in your earlier pictures.
Another way to do this is to make a brick or concrete walkway, not stepping stones. A smooth walkway makes it easier to roll the cans in and out.

A poured concrete walkway is better done by experienced people.
