Default Planter design for shallow rooted plants


I'm considering making some "sculptural" planters out of hypertufa,
Hypertufa is concrete mixed with sphagnum moss and either vermiculite or
perlite. This makes a somewhat lightweight porous container.

For my purposes of design and ease of construction shallow containers is
what I would like.

I found this nice list:

I suppose some succulents and mosses could be added to that list.

I'm over in 7A, piedmont.

How shallow can I get away with? Hens and Chicks seems like a good
shallow candidate.

I'd like to plant these and attempt to sell a few. What can I grow and
reproduce quickly, I know a small bit about cloning.

Any potting suggestions appreciated.
