Default building a raised rose bed

Thanks for the links, but those don't really help. None of them mentions
how you dig in on a sloping stretch. Building the raised box is the easy
part, it's the slope that complicates it.

You may be looking more for plans, but these pics may help:

Does anyone have a link or general instructions on how to build a raised

looking for hints or suggestions on building the boxes. This would be

for a
side of my house where the lawn slopes down as you walk along the side

of
the house. So I'm looking for hints on what to use, and how you build

up
the lower end to make it level with the higher end. I think I want to

use
RR ties or landscape timbers, etc. Any hints appreciated.

thanks
