and another link to an article with many pictures in it about this garden. Worth looking at for hanging ideas.

Here is a link that might be useful: Hanging in Hampshire pictures

Thanks for sharing that again. Can anyone see how they are wiring the pots? It kind of looks like they are wired around then across the top like a bail. I guess you would have to experiment with it until you master the technique.

It looks like the hanging ones are fairly young....

You'd think with that much foliage that close together, you'd have disease problems from lack of circulation.

Many of the areas are gorgeous, though.

I think I read an article in one of my magazines that just showcased the pot wall not their entire hosta garden. Thanks Moccasin I truly enjoyed that video. Never knew about garlic spray. Always learning something from GWF. WW

Truly a beautul video and what a great way to display. Love the garlic spray idea and may have to mix up a brew to have on hand. Thanks Moc

BK, if you follow the second link above, with the still photos, there is an image of some poles with the wire and clips visible. I think the upper pole is only for attaching the clips that hook to the pot below. And then the bottom of that pot rests on the pole beneath it, but the pole also has clips for the next row down.

The pots seem to be all alike, so they are nicely interchangeable and quickly removed. No heavy weight is placed on the top pole, because a second pole helps carry the load. And I'm sure they have vertical braces throughout the length of the pole. I sort of thought the poles were big diameter bamboo, which is pretty strong. More than likely there is an irrigation system running to each pot as well. At the very end of the comments to the still pictures, you can find the email address for the couple, and perhaps they would answer questions about their method of construction, watering, and wintering.

I really LOVE the look of this place, which blends tropical and hosta so well. If you look elsewhere on YouTube, you see folks building "vertical gardens" for veggies and such. The basics are the same though.

Ahhh. It is sprinkling now. DH just washed the car. :)
