Wall hogger

I haven't used anything like it before but I'm tempted by them myself!



I like the plant to the far right.....is it some sort of fern? I wonder how much watering the wall hoggers would take though? I'm wondering if they'd quickly dry out. I do all my gardening in containers and this is like vertical container gardening - it would give me more possibilities.

 

I can't help you with the name of the fern either but I know it likes a lot of water as it's growing around a local waterfall.

 

Fern,
That looks really good.

 

I think the one your refering to is the Polopodium Glycyrrhiza or Licorice Fern, you can find a list of most of the plants we use on our wallgarden web site.

 

btw if you would like any help or ideas please feel free to ask watering is key to a successful verticle garden. A good tip if your hand watering your wall garden and it isn't connected to a water supply, is the use of a pump up water sprayer, you can create enough pressure by connecting to an irrigation pipe that runs along behind your wall garden to go up your pipe and water your garden. The use of simple compensator drippers will release the amount of water you need at each point along the pipe.
