Do you have source that the Hanging Gardens really existed? Because there is still no concrete documentation that it was really existed, there's a controversy that it's just a poetic or actual creation.

It was built by the use of bricks and there was a special mechanical tool that was used to regulate the life of the trees and plants.

Hanging Gardens of BabylonYou can read that they were called this because it hung from the sky by sparkly cords of the angels and that this was the garden of all of the mystical fairies of the 17th century. Actually, Nebuchadnezzar built them to please his wife and they are called hanging gardens because so many of the plants hang.

The Hanging Gardens probably did not really "hang" in the sense of being suspended from cables or ropes. The name comes from an inexact translation of the Greek word kremastos or the Latin word pensilis, which mean not just "hanging", but "overhanging" as in the case of a terrace or balcony.
