Conservatory of Flowers Vertical Garden


A dazzling array of exotic tropicals cover a wall at the entrance to San Francisco's Conservatory of Flowers in Golden Gate Park.  Guadalupe Cota, Senior Nursery Specialist, selects and places each plant as they become available, and the Florafelt Vertical Garden system gives her the flexibility to slowly build the perfect garden according to availability and aesthetic design.  After 6 months, nearly 2/3rds of the pockets have been filled, and the plants have shown significant growth . The planters are hung from steel struts by s-hooks and are watered and fed by a digital hose timer and pressure feeder.  The Florafelt Vertical Garden Planters were donated to this San Francisco institution by Chris Bribach of Plants On Walls.  it is located in the front entrance, and offers visitors a welcome bursting with color and intrigue. http://PlantsOnWalls.com

Strawberry Walls

Strawberries are harvested from a vertical garden using Florafelt Living Wall Planters in Brentwood, California. The steaming hot summers of California's Central Valley are famous for their plentiful produce harvests. Getting the plants off the ground helps curb inset attack and makes for easy pickings. It's fun to just walk up and get a snack. http://PlantsOnWalls.com
