Vertical gardens are creative and functional solutions to bring more greenery to small spaces or to enhance walls, facades and structures such as pergolas. And among so many possibilities, climbing plants stand out for their ability to cover surfaces with lightness, creating visual effects that enchant with their texture, color and fluidity.
Some bloom, others display exuberant foliage — all have in common the potential to completely transform the atmosphere of a space.

Regardless of the species chosen, it is important to ensure that the vertical garden has a firm structure for support, irrigation compatible with each plant and space for root growth. Pruning, pest control and the correct choice of substrates make all the difference in keeping the landscaping always beautiful and well cared for.
