Plants have certain requirements of their own such as sunlight, nutrients and support. So, while planting pots and plants, all this have to be taken care of. Vertical gardening is a kind of trend that first started up in large cities where yard space is very little. The idea behind vertical gardening is that one doesnât need to have large spaces to produce exclusive gardens or good harvest. One can also plant these plants along a vertical plane which would also act like a fence. This saves space and is the perfect gardening technique for gardens set up in the metropolitan areas.
1. Increase limited space for gardens
The factors involved in vertical gardening is that it uses limited space and grow more. This is the reason why more and more people are using this intensive and exclusive way of gardening. As people do not have much spaces to create a beautiful garden in their backyards and some people even do not have backyards, this vertical gardening helps those people to create and grow new plants. People can also act upon this idea of vertical gardening and set up small stands along the balcony where pots can be placed.
2. Keep the pets out of the garden patch
Like, if you donât have your own pets, it may happen that neighborhood pets destroy your vertical garden as for them itâs just a litter. So, vertical gardening helps in preventing this problem also as you can just build a fence, or a wall, or deck rails so that all the pets are left outwards and it would then result in beautiful surroundings. This prevents crows and other birds also, which eat up the leaves harming your garden plants.
3. Minimize diseases and insects
Normally, the plants diseases are spread when they are in direct contact with the soil which is not so in case of vertical gardening or in case of hanging planters. The fruits and vegetation are kept at a distance from the soil which also results in better air circulation which then minimizes the insect infestations fungal problems. And since plants growing vertically would be free of diseases so when full grown they will be healthier and would also grow larger and would create or produce a large lush green bounty.
4. Bending less over to pick the vegetables and fruits
As people have the habit of grabbing fruits which just bend towards the ground due to weight so one should plan the wall size while implementing the vertical gardening technique. Now a dayâs elevated garden planters are also becoming widely available in the markets as it is available with lots of advantages so that even small gardens can enjoy being a healthy garden.
5. The unsightly portions of the landscape should be hidden
Many things are needed and are very mandatory in maintaining the yard such as chain link, tool shed, outdoor compost pile and waste cans. An open compost pile is important for maintaining the garden but is a minus point when talking about enhancing the beauty of the garden or its beautiful landscape. Everyone is quite fond of planting new and beneficiary plants which would benefit them in many ways or produce items that would benefit them. Like some plants could also attract beneficial insects which could help in pollination of the plants in the same pattern. People also grow plants that do or perform three duties together just like beauty shield, can produce food and could also control pests. So, one should be smart enough in selecting right kind of plants while vertical planting which could perform double or triple duties together at the same time, so that adds to the biodiversity of the garden.
