We had an appointment with a landscape gardener who told us that installing 1m (3 ft) high angle stones, also called L-bricks, would only make sense starting in spring. We originally thought they could also be installed in winter. The landscape gardener said there could be problems with the foundation, especially concerning the concrete. It apparently requires certain outdoor temperatures to cure properly.
What are your thoughts on this?

Your landscaping contractor is right. "Standard concrete mixes should not be worked at 0°C (32°F) or below.
It depends on where you are building and how cold it gets there. We are building in North Rhine-Westphalia. Currently, daytime temperatures are around 10°C (50°F), and nights around 3°C (37°F). Of course, it sometimes drops below 0°C (32°F), but sometimes it also gets warmer. Could the landscaping contractor delay the work until a few warmer days come? Does anyone else have an opinion on this?
