Retaining walls can add beauty as well as functionality to any landscaping or garden project. Use them to create raised flower beds, hide foundations, or terraced sloped landscapes. They are a great alternative to railroad ties or poured concrete.

The construction and installation of these type of walls is very simple since they're basically just laid on top of each other in a pattern. However, even though they are a very easy home landscaping project, you'll find the following free instructions, plans, directions, and ideas to be very handy.

Besides basic how to instructions, I've also included several links to pictures, instructional manuals, and design examples.
