For small spaces

As I wonder around Hong Kong, I see many design ideas for small spaces that inspire me; one of them is the few vertical gardens I came across.

Really lush and neat

The above two photos were taken along a pedestrian walkway to a subway station. The plants add some greenery to a closed-up area and provide comfort to the seating area of a busy place.

I am glad I found another succulent lover. You might want to check out the blog I started up again called Sweetstuff's Sassy Succulents. I love these vertical potting arrangements. I would love it if my husband would let me put planters on the side of the house in my succulent garden but he won't poke holes in the house! LOL

How lovely! A vertical arrangement is next on my list...just have to figure out where I can attach it without causing my husband to have a fit!
