MoonTiger just posted a beautiful photo of hanging succulent gardens on some balconies. This one is not as spectacular, but I thought it interesting because it is part of a garden someone was making on the old castle wall Silves Portugal. Don't know how they got the permit, but it did look good.

Yes I think it looks better with some growth and life, though it is very old and red sandstone not brick.
