Small Space Garden - Challenge it With Vertical Gardening

One of the solutions when you are faced with the challenge of small space gardening is vertical gardening. You have to think of growing plants and flowers vertically if you have a balcony garden or a small patio or rooftop garden. It will be easy to plan a lush wall of vegetables, flowers or foliage plants. Fences and wall plantings are very common examples of vertical gardening and are worth trying. You can use your imagination and try out different styles and do not forget to use your landscaping ideas

You can buy both structures and installations for movable wall units from various companies. You can also use this for making an indoor wall covered with lively plants and flowers. You have to make sure you give proper attention to the colors. Both, the color of leaves and flowers are very important. Your likings combined with your imagination should make wonders in your garden and home.

There are various benefits of using this type of gardening:

1. More plants, vegetables and flowers can be grown in a vertical structure using less ground space.
2. The vertical design can be useful for people with difficulty in walking around a large garden.
3. Gardening on vertical walls, trellis and arbor can give them more exposure to sun light and air.
4. Vertical garden wall structures can be used to obtain privacy for your areas.
5. These types of vertical garden structures can be used to provide shade for you to a certain extent.

Good luck for your beautiful vertical garden and watch your small space garden come to life with your landscaping ideas.
