Burms/Basins: the tan circles around the fruit trees and herbs shrubs are the burms/basin indents which will be covered in mulch and where water will be directed to by the gravel french drains/walking path. The gray walkways: are gravel french drains/ walkways that both serve as wlaking paths and direct water to the burms/basins Other features in the garden: the green area is where I will throw wildflower seeds down containing but not limited to the ones listed and shown in design. It also includes a bird bath. Please see attached document explaining the other features of this garden.
