Shed Drainage turned into alittle more

[Ray Speed]

Had to place drainage down next to the wife's studio, and it had alittle run off area, decided to go for a 90% native riverbed run, nearly finished and its looking mint

That does indeed look magical 😍

I'm not sure how heavy the rain can get there, but how do you prevent it washing out? Or do you think the plants' roots will do that job for you?

we get heavy rain on occasions but have had 2 massive downpours 1 including hail that this garden survived really well, the lomandra will assist greatly on the banks and the rest of the plants will also help out

 

[Mandy Onderwater]

Fair enough! Was mostly checking that there was something in plan for that, because it'd be such a waste if it washed out. It's stunning 😍

its fully drained underneath

massive storm about an hour ago, and the riverbed run works so well I even surprised myself hahaha

 

[Mandy Onderwater]

Absolutely love it. It looks to hold really, really well and looks absolutely stunning. I bet I'd enjoy reading a book and watch that.

Great job.
As the trees grow and soil conditions improve it will just pull that water right into the ground.
You've done an amazing job.
