The vertical method of landscaping a plot continues to gain popularity among summer residents.
According to the expert of the online publication Belnovosti, scientist-agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , the prevalence of such a “green wall” is explained by the fact that it not only decorates the area, but also serves as protection from noise and dust, and also provides a little shade.
If you are thinking about creating such a decor, the following plants can help you.
Unpretentious ivy grows slowly, but thickly and beautifully. All its charm can be appreciated with the onset of autumn, when the foliage turns fiery red.
Many summer residents consider maiden grapes only as a weed, and in vain - the plant can decorate not only a flat wall, but even glass. In autumn, wild grapes turn yellow-red, which will make your hedge look completely different.
Often, you can find unusually beautiful honeysuckle as a "green wall". However, in this case, the gardener should not overlook one nuance - the plant must be tied up regularly.
If you equip the area with a special net, you can create a hedge using clematis, which has a variety of species.
Although the plants discussed below require special strong supports, they should not be discounted when it comes to vertical gardening.
We are talking about hops and climbing roses. And if in the first case the plant is suitable for any place and does not need special care, then with the rose the situation is different - if you want to use it as a hedge, you will have to take care of fertilizing, watering and insulation.
Finally, we can't help but say a few words about the underrated lemongrass. This unpretentious plant can reach 10 meters in height, but you shouldn't plant it in a sunny area - you can't avoid burns.
