I recently replaced a long (20m) wooden panel fence with a concrete block wall. .About 6m of the wall is bounding on a new patio and there is a buried oil line just under the patio surface, so cannot dig beds. Wall is north facing, getting sun late PM onwards.I would like to grow evergreen climbers in wall planters, mounted about 300mm above the patio level — I have in mind Clematis Pixie and Trachpermum Jasminoides ( Star Jasmine ?)I was thinking of 900mm long, 450mm tall and 450mm deep from back to front — i.e. about 0.2 cubic metre Is this possible?
