Vertical Gardening

Do you love gardening and have less space or not enough space for gardening? then vertical gardening is the best solution. Because of urbanization and commercialisation in real estate residential properties, there is less vegetation in urban places, which has a direct impact on both the physical and visual quality of life. Buildings’ exteriors and interiors can be designed with vertical gardens. Any type of space can be utilized to the fullest extent possible by using these innovations, resulting in aesthetic benefits that are good for the environment and human life.

Even though the cost of building and maintaining vertical gardens is higher than that of conventional gardening methods, the vertical gardening method has a great impact on reducing the pollution effect. To overcome the growth of urban areas and create a seamless transition to a healthy, green urban environment, new modern concepts like vertical gardening are used.

What is Vertical Gardening?

Vertical Gardening is a unique form of urban gardening that works well in small spaces, especially for renovating roofs and walls in different ways. Extending the possibilities for growing plants in a vertical space, this is an alternative planting method. Green walls can help to liven up the atmosphere in addition to being breathtakingly beautiful. Green walls can soak up hot air reducing indoor and outdoor temperatures.

Amazing Benefits Of Vertical Gardening

Vertical gardening has many wonderful advantages. In addition to saving space, vertical gardens are also simpler to preserve, generate quality crops, and lessen the risk of disease and pest troubles. Discover all the benefits of vertical gardening by reading on.

Gardening Outside The Boundaries

Large outdoor areas are now considered a luxury of the past! Most of us now have small or medium-sized backyards.   However, gardening can also be done in confined spaces using vertical gardening.  Planting only takes up a small amount of area, and you can hang some of the plants or arrange piles of plants vertically one after the other. Making use of areas where you couldn’t otherwise grow anything, like on walls and fences, is one of vertical gardening’s biggest benefits.

Enhances Air Quality And Health

By removing  Volatile Organic Compounds and soaking up pollutants, research has shown that plants enhance the quality of the air both inside and outside. Homes with consistently bad indoor air quality have been known to get better air by installing a vertical garden. The plants in the vertical garden make the air more breathable. They release the necessary amount of oxygen after absorbing the carbon dioxide in the air. Vertical gardens help to create a clean, healthy environment that enhances human health and productivity by acting as natural air filters. Numerous airborne toxins, including formaldehyde, carbon monoxide, and benzene, are harmful to humans. Vertical gardens remove these damaging toxins from the air while also releasing oxygen.

Brings Down Noise Levels

Unknown to most people, having a vertical garden nearby can also help a building be quieter. The vertical garden in the building serves as a soundproofing measure. It reduces noise by up to eight decibels and absorbs about 40% more sound than the typical façade. All the plants you see on the road beautify it and also help to reduce noise pollution because plants have been used to dampen noise along roads and highways. Because they block high-frequency sounds and help dampen low-frequency noise, plants can reduce background noise. By containing a layer of air between the wall and the plants, vertical gardens serve as additional insulation. Additionally, by absorbing, diffusing, and reflecting sound energy, they lower noise levels.

Lessens Stress & Helps Heal Faster

There is an undeniable bond between people and the natural world, and studies have shown that being outside in nature, has a positive impact on one’s mental and physical health. You can get all the benefits from nature you need by having a vertical garden. It is also believed that watching the plants for a few minutes a day reduces muscle tension, blood pressure, heart rate, and brain activity. The calming effect of plants on people reduces stress. Vertical gardens can speed up recovery, which a lot of people are unaware of. A study demonstrates that adding plants to healing spaces speeds up patient recovery. Human beings are calmed by plants and flowers. The effects are so profound that simply looking at plants every day can greatly reduce the amount of time it takes to recover.

Provides Privacy

Growing an outdoor vertical garden has the benefit of obscuring your independent home from passersby. Sprout a vertical garden outside your house’s windows to shield your interior spaces from snoopers. Additionally, vertical gardens offer you privacy from the crowd and uncouth neighbours as well as shade from the sun.

Increases  Building’s Value

City structures are worth more when they are located near green areas. Any house or building will value more if the building has a vertical garden. The presence of a few vertical gardens can improve a company’s image.

Boosts Biodiversity

A vertical garden not only adds plants that increase the biodiversity of an urban environment, but it also gives insects and birds a haven to nest. We are gradually destroying nature as a result of the building of many structures. Numerous organisms are impacted by this. You can give refuge to these threatened insect and bird species by planting a vertical garden.

These are some of the benefits.

If you love gardening and have space limitations, below are a few vertical gardening ideas. You can try any of these.

Three Common Vertical Gardening Systems

The use of vertical gardening systems can have a variety of advantages, including the ability to grow lush gardens even in confined spaces and increased privacy, cooling, and shade. Greater installations of vertical gardens, such as those in public areas, on apartment buildings for people to live in, and on commercial buildings, are becoming more and more common. A few common varieties are freestanding vertical garden systems, green walls, and green facades.

Green walls

Containerized plants or modular green panels arranged across a wall face make up green walls, also known as “living walls.” Herbaceous and shrub-like species as well as small trees may make suitable green wall plantings.

Green wall systems come in a variety of forms. For instance, in a potting medium system, the plants’ growing medium is packed into pots, and drip trays can be used to catch water runoff.

Indoor or outdoor green walls are both possible, but each will have different needs in terms of lighting, species of plants, and other elements.

Green Facades

In contrast to green walls, green facades are composed of plants that climb or scramble up or across a support structure like a trellis.  Hydroponically or in a growing medium, plants can be grown in a green facade.  There are various facade types, as well as green walls. Plants that are grown in the ground with a trellis to attach to form the basis of ground-based facades. Plants are raised above the ground in a facade-bound system at various levels, such as in planter boxes that also hold the growing medium. Green facades are well suited to stainless-steel support structures because of their strength and durability. For twiners and low scramblers, single wire ropes, cross-hatch systems, or preformed mesh are some examples of steel support structures for facades. Climbers, scramblers, and planter boxes can also be supported by pre-formed mesh.

Freestanding vertical gardening systems

Gardens, parks, and other outdoor areas all over the world are incorporating freestanding vertical gardens. In vertical garden frames, in these systems, plants are grown up and occasionally overhead.

Conclusion

More advantages exist for vertical gardens than we can imagine. They benefit not only us but also animals, the environment, and even the microscopic good bacteria that we cannot see. We are removing green spaces to accommodate everyone. Less green space leads to an ecosystem that is out of balance, which has negative effects on us as well. We must all embrace the vertical garden as one of the ways we can improve green spaces.

    We bought an apartment in Bangalore recently and Gangadhar made the entire process easy and seamless. Our experience with Gangadhar was outstanding and he took care of all the requirements for the property transfer end to end in a compressed timeframe. Gangadhar was patient, provided good advice and listened to all our requirements. He went above and beyond to help with a variety of other matters as well. I would highly recommend Gangadhar and his team.
