The Pleasure Of Having Your Own Living Wall System

 

Having a living wall planter at home is such beauty to look at. These green walls has become very fashionable and has become part of every homes, a building or a free standing. Not only that it is great to look at, but this sustainable innovation has health benefits as well. A living wall or a green wall, these vertical gardens are packed with flora that benefits everything from our lungs to our ears. That is also one of the reason why, my husband and I decided to install these green walls at home. After a few weeks of having our own green walls, the air quality inside our home has improved. It is true that these plants act as a natural air filter, purifying the polluted air and on the other hand, releasing oxygen for our body's needs.


These green wall  are excellent aesthetics not just for your homes but for offices too. They can turn a dull and dreary room into an inviting and alluring environment. On the other hand, the foliage absorbs and reflects the noise that comes its way, reducing noise levels that may disturb your sleep. We recently added a water collector for our indoor living wall planter. My husband has noticed recently that the previous water collector we installed together with the wall planter has been dripping out excess water. So we decided to buy a larger one. The water collector is made of durable UV-resistant polymer and includes a convenient drain plug. Now, we can rest well knowing that our wall will be protected from excess water because of this water collector tray.


Always remember that growing a vertical garden indoors is the same as growing plants in containers. All plants need the same thing, no matter how you arrange them or where you put them. A vertical garden involves a sort of container and system that lets you place the plants vertically. It's really that simple and as easy to maintain as a regular garden.

Creating a Unique Space for Plants At Home


Having a plant indoor makes the air cleaner and fresher compared to houses without one. Nowadays, it has already a trend having live plants indoor because of the many benefit that it provides. But, it's not always the plant on pots that we display indoors. Now, even the wall can have a living plant attached and it comes with a frame as well. It was a friend of mine who introduced me to the beauty of having indoor living walls. I didn't want it at first, but I couldn't resist the beauty, charm and uniqueness that it will bring to our home.


My friend provided me a website where I could buy these indoor living wall kit with modern frame, as I browse though their entire website, I was astonished to see all living plants in decorative planters and pots, as well as seed kits and globe terrariums which I can add up to my collection of plants at home. I know, that I will have to go through a lot of maintenance to make sure that these plants will grow beautifully indoors but I am ready for the challenge. Good thing is that I do not have to worry about the water drippings because the kit comes with a water collector tank at the bottom, so the drippings will go to the tank directly. The kit also includes a moisture mat at the back of the planter so to keep the soil of the plants watered longer and the moisture that the plants needed is maintained.


I am very excited to receive the living wall kit that I ordered online, it says in the shipment details that I will be receiving it within the next 2 to 3 business days. It will be an additional decoration at home, especially this coming Christmas day. I know anybody who will see it, will surely envy it.
