Vertical gardens and orchards are an original way to make better use of the space you have in your home to grow plants in a practical way.
Plus, on the same acreage you could plant just one plant, you can have hundreds!
Look at the following ideas and choose the most suitable for you.
1. Trellis with pots
If you have a fence with small holes on your balcony, you can hang all the pots you want from it. But also, you can place a trellis on a free wall, as in this case, simply to take advantage of that space by hanging pots with your favorite plants.
2. Pyramid garden
This orchard made with beds on top of each other, forming a pyramid, multiplies the surface making it possible to plant many more plants in the same space. You can see how to do it here.
3. Salad wall
It doesn’t matter so much how you garden, but if you use all edible plants that can be eaten raw, like leafy greens and tomatoes, you’ll have a wall of salad you can help yourself to every day!
4. Green Columns
These planters are specially designed to obtain beautiful green columns that fill any garden with life. It doesn’t matter if you have just one or if you build a huge maze with them. Either way they will look amazing!
5. Column of pots
Although this design is designed with special containers, why not stack pots yourself to take advantage of space vertically and have your own homemade green column?
6. Vertical flowerbeds
This idea is as simple as vertically placing two large flowerbeds that already had their surface covered with vegetation.
7. Wood planks
To make your vertical flower bed much more beautiful, you can cover it with openwork boards and plant something different in each space.
8. Vertical planters
In this case, the entire vertical garden, made up of wall-mounted pots, is planted with the same species, creating a very neat effect.
9. Horizontal lines
A game between the vertical and the horizontal created with plates can give your garden a very original style.
10. Edible Vines
Did you know that all creeping plants can grow vertically if you give them something to hold onto to grow?
11. Onions in drums
This clever idea will give you tasty onion leaves to spice up all your home cooked meals.
12. Cloth bags
Cloth bags purchased, recycled, or made by yourself are always a great option to plant vertically in a practical way and in little space.
13. Cylindrical openwork bucket garden
This garden is made with a bucket in which eyelets are pierced by making horizontal cuts. The best thing about this idea is that you can install a perforated tube inside it to turn it into a practical irrigation system.
14. Strawberry Column
This idea is as simple as stacking pots, drilling holes in them, and planting whatever you want in there. Strawberries or tomatoes will grow wonderfully.
15. Staircase
You don’t need to spend money or think too much. A simple staircase with some pots made by yourself with what you have in your house can be great in your garden.
16. Reuse!
You can use any structure you have in your house, and take advantage of it to build flower beds or hang pots: the back of an old bed, a ladder, or whatever you want!
17. Staggered orchard
If you have time to build this simple structure, like a ladder, you can then place plastic pots that you can find in any nursery and have this beautiful vertical garden.
Fill your entire home with life!
