55 Smart And Practical Vertical Garden Ideas

Smart And Practical Vertical Garden Ideas

If you don’t have enough outdoor space but still want a garden, some fresh veggies or herbs, some beautiful blooms, there’s a solution to the problem: a vertical garden. Being a series of vertical planters standing or attached to the wall, a vertical garden can give you the desired things without stealing your precious space. Here are some ideas of such gardens.

Wall Vertical Gardens

A wall vertical garden is perhaps the coolest idea to get some greenery, blooms and herbs without sacfiricing any floor space. What you need to do is to attach your planters to the wall somehow, and here there are several ways to go: attach a grid or a holder, attached planters themselves or hang some planters on a special hanger or shelf. The way, its design and look depend on the style of your outdoor space. My favorite designs are pipes on the wall that act as planters (paint them bold to make the look more eye-catching) and grids with planters that can easily double as privacy screens when in need and can be moved from place to place. If you are a DIYer, you can make some wall shelves of pallets or attach some planters to the wall to achieve the look you want.

Standing Vertical Gardens

A tiered vertical planter is an alternative to a usual planter, and it allows you to have more plants without wasting floor space. There are ready metal and wood and many other vertical planters and of course you can make your own ones marking each herb’s name with a chalkboard marker. My fave option here is a tiered white planter for modern spaces, I think it will easily fit many balconies and even small gardens or side yards letting you have fresh herbs or beautiful blooms. Get inspired!
