Patrick Blanc Interview
Jun 3rd
Patrick Blanc is the original vertical garden creator. Here’s an interesting interview he’s had where he gives more insight into the design process. It includes footage of several of his living wall creations. You can also see a living roof concept Chelsea Flower Show here as well. I’m a big fan of his hair.
Ecohabitare’s portable greenwall
May 28th
Industrial designers Daniele Adamo and Ravel Casela have created a vertical garden from flat plates out of recycled packages and other plastics. This vertical garden is portable and easy to install. It can be installed on decks, balconies, or walls as long as it gets at least 4 hours of sunlight. All the space it needs is a wall 3 meters (about 9 ft) long. This system allows you to harvest your garden at shoulder height so there’s no straining on your back. It takes only a bit of water and you only need to take about 20 minutes/day to harvest and irrigate. The designers say you can grow tomato, strawberries, and herbs like chives, parsely, basil, mint and rosemary. Just change the soil once a year and add new seeds whenever you need.
