Not sure what will survive year round where you are but please plant that for me. I think you’re saying that at this point you’re not sure.
I once made a ‘walkway of time/thyme’ with thyme. The thyme between the rocks on the ground didn’t make it but the thyme one small area of dirt against the wall has grown for 20 years.
Thyme. Or something that will grow all year.
How beautiful your rock wall. Thank you for the opportunity, honor to be a part of it.

Wow, what a way to transform something and the whole trajectory of ones thinking 
If you have place for a plant for me, I‘d like to add something to express my gratitude for the fact that my life is so precious. In order for me to exist so many people have had to give so much goodness. It‘s a miracle really. Every day is a miracle.
I have no idea what would work on your wall: climate, amount of sun, etc. I really like grape vines, but as they climb everywhere this might not make much sense. Otherwise sage is also great. But honestly I‘ll leave the decision to you.
Thanks for sharing your wall with us

I absolutely love the idea of your gratitude wall, @erntedank ! Perhaps you can plant some German Chamomile for me? And brew a cup of nice relaxing tea with it sometime.

You are heartfelt welcome all 
It’s a TS idea, developed together and I’m happy and grateful to share it with whom ever wants to.
@Alisa Thyme is fine, I will plant some for you
@acromouse Sage is fine too, grapevine is too invasive, I will pmant some for you
@Dazercat Edelweis is fine, I will plant some for you
@Pattycake I will try and seed German Camomille, let’s see how it works
Tomorrow I’ll see if today’s plants are still in the wall. It rains. So this is the first test for my first attempt. Enough material & plants left for further learning experiences

Owww, what a lovely idea @erntedank 
If you have some space left then maybe a Muurvaren - Asplenium ruta-muraria for me? It’s called Wallfern and the name says it all 
Maybe it’s already growing on your wall in itself?
It’s a little tough persistent plant, a bit like me
Grateful for a bit of light, water and soil and grows even on church walls and such.
Again, great idea turning something “bad” into something powerful like this!

Beautiful idea. Of course there’s space for all kinds of ferns This variety I have to go searching, it’s not available to buy. Asplenium trichomanes ok too until I find an Aslplenium rura muraria? What a lovely reason to visit the churches and ruines in the region!!!

Think about if you would like a specific plant. Of course you can let me choose one if you want. Take your time. The stone wall will patiently wait.

Hi, I’m back and I thought about what kind of flower I should ask for do daffodils grow there? I love daffodils!
Also, you have no idea how grateful I am that because of your post, I’ve been thinking about flowers all day instead of addiction and dark things. Thank you so much for that, and God bless
