Actually, since succulents generally prefer things on the drier side, you’d think the rain would be a turn off to them.

With all the rain Seattle gets, it’s no wonder these succulents are gorgeous!

Hi! I wanted to plant edibles. How should they be planted, worried about overcrowding and or loss of soil.

Do you have to lay the pallet down to water or are you able to get enough in it by watering each row while still standing?

Where did you go in Seattle? Did you have fun in our rainy city?

Hi, I love this idea. I wanted to create it in a smaller scale by building my own “pallet” and planting herbs for an indoor purpose to hang in the kitchen. What do you think? Too messy?

The rebar would hold up great..just 1 on each side.

Curious as to how this would work in northern areas…we have to replant every year and I am not certain how the frost and freezing will damage the plants and their roots. I am still going to give it a shot in the spring anyhow..thank you for your inventive and green ideas.
