I was worried about the moisture issue as well since the roots are on the roof.  
Maybe it’s best to have the vines in the ground and grow up the wall to the pergola, though i’d rather keep the walls bare.

Jade as pictured in the attachment grows quite well outside here. (i think it’s crassula ovata?
