One of the most interesting propositions for non-standard planting are the so-called green walls, i.e. vertical structures that allow plants to be planted in them.As a rule, they consist of multi-cell trays or pockets filled with a substrate.
Special irrigation systems evenly distribute water in them. A hydrogel is often added to the substrate to store water which is then taken up by the roots. The proposed solutions include systems for various types of interiors: from apartments to large halls of office buildings or shopping centers.
Often these are modular systems that allow plants to be combined into larger arrangements.This creates great compositional possibilities, especially if they use species with contrasting colored leaves.
The following are suitable for creating green walls: Epipremnum aureum golden epipremnum (e.g. 'Toxic' or 'Neon' with yellow-green leaves), Syngonium podophyllum conjoined, Philodendron philodendrons, Sternberg's herb Chlorophytum comosum, Begonia rex and various species of Begonia rex ferns and flowering plants from the pineapple family Bromeliaceae.
When planning green walls, remember about access to light for plants.If we want to place the wall in a place with little daylight, use special artificial lighting (ordinary lamps for interior lighting do not emit waves). used in photosynthesis).
