Advice for a succulent garden

This concrete slab was full of stones this morning. I've cleared it as I want to make a succulent garden. My idea was to lay down white large pebbles and then have rounded style pots (see image) where I could plant the succulents. 

 

I'm just wondering should I put the pebbles right up to the fence line there and also Id like to make some sorts of stop gap between the dirt and slab adjacent to the fence line. 

 

Unless there is something easier to lay then pebbles over the concrete slab that will complement the pots and succulents, I'm open to suggestions. 

 

At this stage - I'm just in the laying the foundation phase. 

 

Cheers.

Re: Advice for a succulent garden

Hello @Innov8tive 

 

I propose building a sleeper surround frame that will give your succulent garden definition. Building a rectangular sleeper frame provides you with the gap you are after and keeps the pebbles inside preventing them from spreading out or getting kicked away. 

 

Let me call on our experienced members @Noyade, @Dave-1 and @OG_Bee for their recommendations.

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.

 

Eric
