SPONSOR HIGHLIGHT "St. Patty's After Party" BLOG HOP EVENT
The "hand-made planters are designed to use the micro fibers in PET felt so that all the plants are watered equally." Whats really awesome is the felt is even made from recycled plastic bottles! This is an indestructible and non-toxic fiber so you can safely grow organic fruits, vegetables and herbs! Obviously this is a big plus for me since I tend to grow mostly edibles.
These are great for apartment or city living because of how little space they actually take up. "Roots grow right into the felt, which comes alive thanks to the microbiology in the soil." Right now in Michigan is the time of year I start preparing seedlings for my summer gardening. So unfortunately I do not have pictures of my plants in the actual vertical garden just yet. But I am readily waiting for the snow to stop so I can add them and create a beautiful scene in my back yard! I will update with pictures as soon as I have them!!

Ooh, this seems really useful! It seems that it would be easy to use, too, and will help keep at least some of the animals from eating whatever we grow in it! That's one of the reasons we rarely have a garden; if we ever get the plants to grow animals eat the sprouts!
ReplyDeleteWow what a great product I have seen some that are similar but the ones I have seen had to be watered they didn't have the micro fibers in PET felt so that all the plants are watered equally. I love that you can still be green even if you are living in an apartment or high rise hey we like flowers and veggies too. So glad Plants on Walls thought of us apartment dwellers too :) Love that being off the ground and on a wall they won't get all buggie.
ReplyDeleteI love that it is made from recycled plastic bottles, that is awesome. I would love to hang one of these in the pavilion.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great idea! I enjoy gardening, but don't have as much space as I would like. I also like that this uses recycled bottles.
ReplyDeleteI would love to -win- Grand Prize Pack #2 - ARV $104.
ReplyDeletePlants on Walls - Florafelt 4 Pocket Vertical Planter caught my
eye right away. I spent the last several months studying different
ways to garden in vertical planters. I would love to win and try
this one out. It is time to plant and I still haven't decided which
way I want to plant. If I don't decide quickly, I'll have to use the
standard garden for one more year and start designing my vertical garden
next year. Please let me win and give it a try on a small scale this
growing season. thank you BL
I've never tried vertical gardening, but I've heard that it is one of the best ways to grow strawberries, which I love. I hope to try this soon!
