Aspidistra Living Wall

This is yet another approach to creating a living wall. The wall is in a courtyard of Casa Camper a hotel in Barcelona, Spain. Each bedroom and bath has a view of the wall. The hotel also has a rooftop garden terrace. 

The photo is from the XYMYRA website. 

The RED side opens onto a small, quiet inner courtyard, and from the bedroom and bath one can see an unusual installation: an 18-meter-high shelf is planted  with over 100 aspidistra plants—a lush, vertical garden. Read more...

What I particularly like is that the plants are low-light tolerant Aspidistra. I'm guessing that they are a dwarf variety. 

I have grown many Aspidistra plants in clay pebbles (hydroculture). They are very durable indoor plants but not very easy to find. It's worth looking. I'm going to buy some dwarf Aspidistra plants online.  

If anyone has a recommendation or suggestion please post a comment.

I wonder how this is watered? I can't see any irrigation tubes. It's a good eco-friendly idea by the company, though. Cudos.
