We used soil from the site to create mounds for planting areas along golf cart way. This then allowed us to use plants that will create privacy to the entertainment area. We also wanted to raise the planting beds so as to soften the walls as there are few windows facing the street side.
The use of stones was to match the cladding walls which also played a very good role with contrast between the light and dark green plants including the dark green All seasons evergreen grass.
