The Upside of Vertical Gardens
What if you love greens but live in a city dwelling that doesn’t have the space for a sprawling garden? Most people think that their only option is to have a few potted plants within their limited living space. However, this isn’t an ideal solution as potted plants tend to take up valuable floor or work space.
Living Green Walls
A great way to have a garden while saving precious space is by going vertical. By adding a living green wall, also known as a bio-wall, you are not only infusing character to your home but more importantly creating a healthier living space. Your bio-wall acts as a natural filter by removing air pollutants and ensuring that the air you breathe in at home is always fresh.
A Cool Feature
A well placed vertical garden can also function as an additional layer of insulation from the sweltering heat of our tropical climate. The natural cooling effect of the plants means that you’ll be saving more energy by using less air conditioning. At the same time, you’ll be upping the cool factor of your home by creating living works of art with your unique combination of plant species. In addition, a lush vertical garden also makes an excellent sound barrier when all you seek is serenity after a long day at work.
