I like that wall but please give your lemon some love. Looks magnesium deficient.The header is a local product I found. Sort of like Corten, with similar rusting color, but thicker so as not to create a sharp edge. I have a young daughter so didn't want to put Corten into the lawn. Comes in 8' segments that bend with some muscle grease or can be ground off. View attachment 1593304
Local soil underneath. My house sits on a pad that was cut out of a hillside (the remainder of which rhe brick wall contains), so no need for aggregate really. Its very compacted and full of clay as is. Means the adjacent planting bed needs to be heavily amended.
And ya, the wall is one of the few things the old owners did i actually like, though the wiggle is more extreme in some places than others.
