Stone Wall Pockets

This is such a neat idea- I have never seen anything quite like it. Not sure how well it would work where there is serious frost action, but I wonder if something similar couldn't be used with effect?

I love it... the bummer is when one of the pots crack. HOW DO you replace it?

Great Share - Can't wait to get digging in the dirt. HOW ABOUT YOU?!

i have seen this done on a broad rock staircase, with small areas of rocks removed and planted
with low growers and creepers,
like the thymes,various sedums, chamomile and thrift [armeria]. stairs were quite passable,
but small patches grew down the steps in a random way. very nice!
sort of like a rock garden on the wide stone steps.
