[Aroid-l] Species suited to a water wall

From: Paul Temple <paulindr at gmail.com> on 2009.04.21 at 03:54:25 Hi. A friend advised that this list sometimes discusses water walls and the species that suit them. Ihave a new water wall.=A0 It's about 5 feet high and about 20 feet long. Rocks are already turning green after just a week of water includingseveral dry spells (to fix leaks!).=A0 I live at 1400 metres above sealevel in the Dominican Republic so day temperatures can be as high as32C (often cooler) and nights drop to as low as 6C.=A0 The wall isexposed to strong sunlight for several hours a day.=A0 The water isneutral and direct from a river.=A0 The rocks are probably neutral (butmay tend towards alkaline - I must test this). If anyone can suggest specific plant species or varieties (not necessarily aroids) thatwould be either interesting or attractive, I'd be grateful.=A0 I'mrelatively knowledgeable about carnivorous plants=A0 and not new tospecialist gardening, so I'm=A0 looking for something a little morehelpful than generalities (so for example, being told that "ferns" aregood would be no real help). Thanks for any suggestions, especially if replies are copied directly to me.
