Shallow wood box filled with soil and covered with galvanized mesh. Appropriate for succulents. This is probably the approach we want. But I have not seen a wall sized version - we'll need to make several of these and tile them as in this [http://www.houzz.com/photos/2932811/Green-Street-contemporary-patio-philadelphia example] (Plywood and mahogany frame, root barrier behind soil behind landscape fabric held in with wire). We can also make our own large tray (a wood grid) rather than individual boxes - but individual boxes may be more manageable (can be removed more easily).

'''Challenges'''

*Water flow/drainage: make holes at the bottom of each tray?
Driving practice, taxes
*Weight: will the wall withstand the weight? Perhaps use bookshelf approach where most weight rests on the ground and picture hanging hooks keep flush to the wall (may require a row of bricks below the bottom tray).

I think the best contrast colors for dark brown walls are white, yellow and apple green. See for example:
*Trim for kitchen sink surround [https://photos.google.com/photo/AF1QipP40p8cU-9mD7EMMEqAFtiAdHsUzttsK-njkp5T] [https://photos.google.com/photo/AF1QipPYABn4eJEo1M3jvsKH-Dicz3QD_E_qm6gEM_nR]: [https://www.menards.com/main/doors-windows-millwork/moulding/all-unfinished-trims/mastercraft-reg-7-16-x-3-x-7-primed-fj-pine-fluted-casing-m586/prmdpineflutedcsgm586-7/p-1571898503367-c-7607.htm?e

Menards doesn't have any bright greens (only boring ones), but Home Depot does have one that looks pretty nice (bamboo leaf). So here's the palette I suggest:
 
Inline image 3
 
Links for the paints at Home Depot:
 
Bamboo Leaf (green):

Lemon Lime (yellow):

Chalkboard Paint:
http://www.homedepot.com/s/chalkboard%2520paint?NCNI-5
 
For the MH I think we should go with white for the walls as that will make the space appear bigger.
