Faster Creation and Simplified Tending
Installing a living wall can actually be faster than a traditional garden.
Instead of digging individual holes in the soil, vertical gardens are
designed around plants that either climb or hang. This means fewer
plants are actually required to get a significant amount of coverage. Also,
when you choose options that grow quickly, space can actually be filled
with ease.
Energy Efficiency
When Vertical garden are placed on the interior or exterior walls, they
function as an additional layer of insulation. During hot summer months
or cooler winter months, this often helps to improve the efficiency of the
building through better internal temperature management.
Increased Accessibility
Plants that are grown vertically are often easier to access than a garden
spread across the ground. They are easier to tend for those with mobility
issues, such as those resulting from prior knee or back injuries, or
conditions like arthritis. This means gardening can be added to the lives
of many more individuals when constructed as a plant wall instead of a
traditional horizontal garden.
