    I just used those stackable milk crate like boxes that you can get at Michaels or Canadian Tire. Lined it with landscaping fabric around the edges. Fill with dirt then poke holes through the sides (where there’s already holes in the crates) and stuff with plants. Don’t line the bottom. This way I can reconfigure it however I damn well please. I have 4 sides to each box and I can stack boxes on top of each other to build the wall. If I get bored of one configuration I can simply pick a few boxes and turn them around to give a different look.

    If one of the plants died, and we want to change it, do we have to change all? Cos I'm thinking to make my fence from this living wall

    Beautiful! Too bad some of the plants died...and why such a deep space for planting? Other vertical plantings are much more shallow depth-wise.

    probably works as a good extra isolator in winter too. esp for brick/cement. anyway I think that main glass building is much more of a eye sore. modern buildings are fugly.

    Nice look but shame the Carex looks/is dead. Why do you need a 10 inch deep frame as that needs more water for plants that dont have much root content.

    title misleading as you do not in any way explain how to plant a living wall. You take a extremely complex idea as basterdize it in 3 min. have my dislike for wasted 3min
