LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS- Vertical Gardens

I have joked about covering my walls with a ChiaPet concoction. That the houseplants just aren't enough. I thought how fun it would be to have canvases that are living plants hung on the wall. I googled "using plants as art" & got garden sculptures. Ok, but not what I was looking for. Well, imagine my surprise when I opened this month's issue of Garden Design. A canvas covered in hens & chicks. Agh! That's what I had been looking for!!!!! The artist is Patrick Blanc, he creates Vertical Gardens using a hydroponic system. Simply amazing!

Sweet, this could make me happier! If you come up with a way to make cube walls out of hens and chicks you'll be rich!
