What frost tolerant plants would you recommend that will cascade down a concrete wall?
we have a tall concrete wall that faces the road on the edge of a bank and I would like to grow something to cascade or flow over that is frost tolerant and likes a west coast winter

Hi Rebekah,
Here are a few suggestions you might like to consider to cover the concrete wall:-
Acacia - prostrate forms
Myoporum parvifolium
Rosmarinus officinalis (prostrate form)
Grevillea 'Royal Mantle', Grevillea 'Bronze Rambler', Grevillea langigera
Banksia - prostrate forms
Juniper horizontalis
If you have a local nursery, I am sure they will be able to help with these plants. They may also stock other groundcover plants that would fit the location.
Happy gardening.
