For a more DIY approach that’s particularly suited to residential properties, rain gutter vertical garden systems are an economical choice: they’re cheap, easy to put together and very effective. No vertical garden systems comparison would be complete without a mention of these fun vertical gardens.
Green Facades
If a vertical wall comprised of multiple rows of plant containers is not desirable or practical, a green façade may be a good alternative. Green facades normally feature climbing plants rather than uniform horizontal rows of plants.
Freestanding Frames
These are useful for outdoor areas in which traditional gardens may be difficult to install and maintain owing to space limitations.
