FINALLY!! SUCCESS. After our disaster pergola purchase for our windy Zone 7A upper deck,I could not be more thrilled with how these privacy panels with raised beds turned out!! The instructions were simple and easy for two people and it took 1.5 cuft of raised bed soil to fill each bed to the top. We added Mandevilla and verbena and topped with crushed stone. The solar lights are Hampton Bay gutter solar lights,we sprayed them matte black and they were a perfect fit. Because of our windy ridge, we did secure both panels with heavy duty zip ties. I would definitely purchase these again,the panels give our deck a modern vibe and I cant wait to change the plants to match the seasons! Wayfair for the win!
