Holes were drilled in the bottoms (which will be the backs, once hung) of the wooden and closed containers.
Most of our plants were hens and chicks, as well as other succulents and a few small sedum plants.
Chicken wire was fitted into the boxes. Once everyone was here, we tamped potting mix into the containers, created little holes for the plants and tamped them in, and put Spanish (spaghnam) moss over all, tucking it under and around the chicken wire.
A little spritz with water occasionally will moisten the soil.
After a few weeks in a bright, sunny window - until it becomes warm enough to set outdoors - will establish the roots.
Then the items can be hung vertically, if desired!
Tah Dah!
