Default garden wall from debris

We recently had some debris from wall that was torn down. So I got a pile of this concrete shards which I can't get into the garbage cans. I thought about piling them up into a low mini-wall where I can put some potted plants. It's nicely covered with lichen and some green slime now.

Pictures might give us a better understanding of what it looks like . Sounds like a neat project you put together.

that surely sounds like a good idea to me. it will give a look of the wild or somethign like that. and if the pot color matches with the debris then its even better. if you take a pic of this then do put it up here.

This sounds like it should work out very nicely for you. I had a mini-wall something like that years ago, but it was bigger pieces of the materials, and looked very nice. I'd think the smaller pieces would work just as well.

That's a good idea! We have two old concrete steps that have been sitting by our house for a year now, and I've been looking for some use for them...
