    I was wondering that, too. It kind of looks like baby corn plants, but corn should be much taller than that by now, especially in the South.

    It is sideways for me, so it is hard to see if it is terraced. I have never really done a true terraced garden. What are you growing?

    I was thinking corn too but then I thought the word 'terrace' would fit better for a flower garden. The arrangement/layout is nice.

    The downhill slope should help with pollinating of the corn.

    found out today why my beans that I planted late keep disappearing, Rolly pollies, sprayed them with my rosemary and cayenne pepper mix, that should get their attention

    Also called Pill bugs. You may know them by that name.
