Dear Sedum Master, sales@sedummaster.com
Following up our phone conversation: we're looking into planting a wall garden and would love your advice on what's the best way to approach this.
Attached is a photo of the exterior wall we would like to cover. The whole wall is 14 ft x 8 ft, but there is a big window, so the area to plant would be around 55 sq. ft.
Based on our conversation earlier today, it seems that your sedum blankets are not really appropriate for walls. We're DIYers so we'd be able to build the wall frame ourselves and then plant the sedum. Or please let us know what the best way to go about it.
We particularly like the John Creech species and it seems adequate to our climate. I understand that, in addition to the blankets, you also sell just the plants. Could you please let us know how many pots of John Creech we'd need to cover around 55 sq ft and what the cost would be? Alternatively, what would be the least expensive species or approach to this?
We're located in Maysville, Missouri.
