Hello, I have an unsightly brick wall which is in a sunny position all
day long. It is about 3ft high and is chipped on the top. Can anyone
advise how I would go about planting on this? I have seen those
amazing bright lilac flowers (look a bit like lobelia) growing out of
walls and would love the same on the top of my wall. Is this possible?
Thanks.

It is if you set flower boxes along the top and water often.

Hi thanks for your reply. I was hoping that I could plant flowers
amongst the crevices and cracks.

Is this an ornamental wall or a boundary marker? I trust it isn't a
retaining wall. The roots from ANYTHING growing in the wall will
eventually disassemble a brick wall. It is a pretty, post-civilized look
but you don't want to unleash any thing.
