spectacular plants Bruno!
May I ask what the composition of your media is, and how often you water? And finally, do they only get your water, or are they open to the rain as well?

Bruno - is that a plastic 2 liter soda bottle that you are using for your growing container? If so, would you include a quick note about how you converted it
Thanks
