Decorating with plants - Living wall installation

The arrangement looks great, but through the time with no room for root growth - will the plants be healthy or survive for long time. Or, is this a temporary arrangement where you keep changing plants every 4-6 months?

@AjayKagitha You can change the plants as you like, but you do have the option of making it permanent. You would need to prune the plants every six months to a year to keep them a manageable size.. but that's about it. The roots can get all the nutrients they need when the plants are watered - just add a bit of water-soluble fertilizer once a month or so.

That looks very interesting and the plants are so nice. But I was wondering with just the roots and that cloth u used, will the plants survive longer? How do you water them? Like the usual way of watering plants?

@missuswrinkle In this system the water is pumped up from the reservoir at the bottom automatically a couple times a day. You'd just put in some liquid fertilizer every so often (could be once a month) and that gives the plants everything they need.
