Vertical Gardening is not only a resort to space constraint, but also is a method of adding life and greenery to a dead wall. Next time you hear your colleague say ‘I love gardening but have no space for it’; you better say Go Vertical and Save Space.
Keep these tips handy when you decide to go vertical:
1. A wall dedicated for gardening:
Arrange many small containers and dedicate them to a wall. Just install a container rack as per the measurement of your wall and place all containers on it. You can grow ornamental plants, flower, or herbs that perfectly complement your home. Instead of covering the entire wall you can use small racks as well. However, make sure that your garden receives abundant sunlight.
2. Use stand-alone wall:
Use hex wire netting to hang multiple pots on it. You can do it outside your home, that will not occupy much space, and the plants will receive a good amount of sunlight. Use Terra-cotta pots to increase growing potential. Read more about vertical garden designs.
