This 'green wall' has been created in a narrow planter box less than 30cm wide around the perimeter of a pool and includes a mixture of climbers such as Bougainvillea and Dipladenia; shrubs such as Alternanthera, Clerodendrum and Hibiscus; and a foreground planting of Cordyline, Daylilies and giant Bromeliads. On the top of the wall there is a wire trellis to provide extra height and to block out the view of neighbouring houses while retaining the outline of the distant green hills of the Wollongong escarpment.
I love this idea of a perimeter planter box!
ReplyDeleteIan, the wall of shrubs surely gives a beautiful backdrop around the pool and gives privacy, as well. I love the variety, also.
ReplyDeleteGreat looking vertical garden. Well done
