Create a planted wall yourself
A wall garden can be installed both outdoors and indoors. Models for indoor use are usually a bit more expensive and complex, as not a drop should go wrong. (For more information on indoor vertical walls, see here.) On the other hand, you can also put self-made models on the wall in the outdoor area, e.g. B. from pallets. If you are less technically gifted or looking for a quick solution, you will find several options on the Internet, e.g. B:
- Plant bags and planters for individual green wall design
- Plantable picture frames for selective wall greening
- tailor-made systems for a complete green wall

Alternative: climbing plants
With climbing plants you can green your walls even more cheaply, but it takes a while until the wall is overgrown. This variant is also suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, although you should avoid plants with adherent roots indoors, as these damage the wall. Instead, build a nice trellis and choose plants that will cling to that trellis without taking up the wall. This is also a good option for outdoors. The most popular indoor climbing plant is the Efeutute. They are also popular, albeit a little slow in growth Zebra herb and the Porcelain flower.
You will find more beautiful climbing plants for the balcony and terrace.
