Description
Build a stable, pro-looking retaining wall with the Diamond Pro Stretcher Harvest retaining wall block. Tame slopes, frame garden beds, and add usable space with a concrete wall unit that stacks straight, locks up tight, and delivers a natural-stone look in a warm Harvest blend.
Key Features
- Engineered stability: Use the stretcher unit to create consistent alignment and setback for straighter, safer walls.
- Textured split face: Get the quarried-stone appearance without the cost or complexity of natural stone.
- DIY-friendly build: Work course by course; set the base once and keep stacking with predictable results.
- Weather tough: Rely on dense concrete designed for outdoor freeze–thaw when installed with proper drainage.
- Color that blends: Choose Harvest to warm up patios, walkways, and planting areas with multi-tone depth.
Applications
Shape low retaining walls, garden terraces, and raised planters. Define edges around patios and walkways, or cut into gentle slopes to create level, usable zones. Pair with matching corner and cap units from the Diamond Pro system when a finished top or returns are needed.

Plan the wall height and drainage before you start. Excavate and compact a crushed-stone base, set the first course dead level, add a perforated drain where needed, and backfill with clean gravel. Reinforce with geogrid based on wall height and site conditions, following local codes or an engineer’s guidance. Rinse occasionally to keep the face looking fresh.
