Or is the wall going to run along the outside curve of the walkway?

Maybe I was not completely clear. I am not using the wall for retaining the slope. I am going to essentially create a raised planter for the front bed of bushes. I am going to build the wall, back fill with good soil, and put the current + new plants back in. In the picture I am standing at the bottom of the slope. It slopes up toward the front door.
