Nice Amr!  Funny but the walls that border your property TOTALLY remind me of Egypt.
Like every homeowner had to add something different to some side or height of the wall
over time.....
Nothing consistent.....

Anyway.....do you mulch them, expecially ih your hot summers?

Infact the usage of red bricks that are made from top soil is nearly the only building material that is cheaply enough to be used in Egypt, and yes it have to remind you of Egypt cause i think its nt used anywhere else ,, as nobody is dumb enough to sacrifice his agricultural land in order to build buildings :D :D but we are not leaving it like this, our home is still under-construction and we are still building it and will cover that mess up close enough :D

And i wasn't mulching them ,, but now the soil is covered with grass so i hope it will keep the temperature from rising in the soil ,,

Pomegranates are one of my favorite fruits. I have 5 pomegranate trees for fruiting and 2 for beauty (dwarf nana).
Grow mainly fruits, vegetables, and herbs.

Time is like a river.
You cannot touch the same water twice, because the flow that has passed will never pass again.
Enjoy every moment of your life!
