Water Feature / Front Yard Garden Area

The Wife thought a photo layout of the work site and accompany it with a map / dimensions might prove helpful.
Walkway cinder block wall is 20 inches above the average ground level.  Paving stone curved wall is also 20 inches above the average ground level.
Drawing shows the entire area would form a rectangle 20 feet by 25 feet. I graphed and boxed it into squares and rectangles and came up with 384 square feet as a rough estimate of the total ground space. In the drawing the discussed plan was to raise the level of the dirt by a foot and a half and to taper it to the upper right corner for drainage to a french drain I have over that way.  Roughly in the center the added dirt was to raise up in a mound for the wife's rose bed planter. There are the 5 concret columns to move and the Ice Plant to be moved, I believe she discussed that with you.
