- Benefits: Enhances aesthetics, improves air quality, provides insulation, and helps in reducing urban heat island effects.
- Space Efficiency: Maximizes limited space, making it ideal for urban environments, small yards, or interior spaces where horizontal space is limited.
- Plant Variety: Can accommodate a wide range of plants, including herbs, succulents, ferns, and flowering species, depending on the climate and conditions.
- Maintenance: Requires regular maintenance including watering, pruning, and occasional replacement of plants to ensure the health and appearance of the garden.
- Installation: Can be installed on exterior or interior walls and may require professional installation depending on the complexity and size of the system.
