Small spaces can be tough to organise when you want to plant a garden. The lack of space calls for some creative planning, but this challenge that can be overcome with vertical gardening. Whether you have a balcony, rooftop garden, or small patio, you should consider growing your flowers and plants vertically instead of using traditional methods. You can plan a lush wall of greenery, including flowers, foliage, and vegetables or fruits. You might even take a section of fence that is no longer required and place your pots in the gaps.
This is the best time to get creative and try different styles and be imaginative. You’ll find that the structures and installation for these movable walls are available from many companies, including VertiScape. They’ll help you plan your garden and give you the tools you need to get it done right.
Benefits
The main advantage of vertical gardening is that you can have more flowers, vegetables, fruits, and plants grown in a smaller space. You aren’t using as much of your floor space, which means you still have enough room for everything else you want, such as tables, chairs, and other outside features.
It is also perfect for those who cannot or would not walk around in a large garden. They still get the benefits of having plants and tending them, without the hassles of getting around to all parts of the garden area.
Your plants may grow better, as well. For example, when you have a vertical wall or use trellises and other features, the plants get more exposure to air and sunlight. It can also make watering them easier.
In some cases, you can use these wall structures as a privacy barrier for the home. You can still see outside, but people will find it harder to look into the home, perfect for patios on the ground floor.
