Hi Davids62. The soil is a potting mix that is from a local nursery here in Vancouver. It's Southlands Nursery's brand of soil. The pots are fertilized every week with a mixture of 15-30-15 liquid fertilizer - one to two large watering cans per container. The containers range from 20" wide to 36" wide. Also they are on drip irrigation so they get constant moisture daily which really helps. I hope this helps!

Thank you for your kind words on my work!

I feel in a situation like this, I would not add windows with no view that would probably end up with some type of coverings a great deal of the time. My situation would be use of mirrors to reflect available light back into room. Mirror could be styled to look like Windows etc. we have a similar situation in our kitchen, and we mirrored over the sink, and created two faux windows using mirror and drapery side pannels. The effect works great, and when you add the right lighting the effect is wonderful, day and night. Take a good look and visualize day and night views creating with mirrors designed into a "today" style and look.

I never thought of that. It's a small room, I'm going for wooden floors throughout the whole ground level to make it flow better. I haven't decided what type either! I love limed oak floors but I'm in Ireland where it's damp a lot, so something that doesn't show up the dirt.

providing engineered flooring is laid correctly it will not lift. It will move but not enough to notice anything which is why it was designed with a ply back. Tiles are best for spreading heat but they also cool down quickly. Engineered flooring keeps the heat for a bit longer. There is not much in this its more the look you want?
