| The progress at Green Side Wall |
Completed in March, the
“Green Side-Wall,” promoted by the Barcelona City Council, is a foray
into what the firm has christened “vegitecture,” or a vertical garden
with emphasis on the structure's original architecture.
The main
material responsible for bringing a breath of fresh air to the
residential area:
Plants—oxygen-producing, living green that cascades
down the once plain wall.
What if all buildings of the future look like this?

Great post, Jodi! I enjoyed reading about the various hydrangeas. I have several but they can be tempermental at times. It's so nice to hear they can handle the sun. Now I understand better why we have blooms on one plant and not on others we pruned at the wrong time! Can't thank you enough!Mumbai Flowers
