Seating project

Hi all

I'm working how to go about creating an outdoor planter box with seating. Got a few questions. I'll attach a pic of the space and what I hope to achieve. 

Plan is to build with narrow besser blocks and rebar with 2 separate footing leaving sand ground between, filling with rocks, landscaping mesh and then soil for planting. 

 

1. Will this be sufficient drainage?

2. How do I waterproof the exterior as I want to butt it up close to the garfen shed and fence?

3. What can I use to fill the gap between the fence and concrete so it doesnt fill up with leaves, nuts etc and create moisture against the wall?
