I had the pleasure of seeing green again this week. After our harsh winter, it was a joy!
Here are some of the snap-shots I took. Very busy day to visit. Was glad to see so many people soaking it up.
The living wall trend is still alive:

To be honest, I prefer this scale. I'd do this in a heart-beat, if I had a hot brick wall facing south/east. For sure. |
