1. 5 Tips for
Easier Vertical Gardens

2. Vertical gardening is an efficient and space-
saving way to grow plants, especially if you
are an urban gardener.
However, it can be challenging to get
started if you have never grown plants
vertically before.

3. • If you start without
doing some research
and planning first, you
can end up with an
overwhelming project.
• Soil and water can
leak, the planting
container can fall
apart and plants can
die.

4. • The key to success with
a vertical garden can be
as obvious as
simplifying your garden.
• By doing this, your
project will require less
work and less time, plus
you will be able to avoid
many common
mistakes that newbies
make.

5. • Here are a few tips for making your
vertical gardening project easier.

6. 1. Buy Starter Plants

7. • Instead of trying to
grow plants from seed,
buy starter plants for
your first vertical
garden.
• They are easier to
grow, but they also fill
out the container
faster.

8. 2. Start with a Smaller Container

9. • Obviously, the smaller container you
use, the less plants you have to get and
the less work you have to do.
• In addition, smaller planters are easier
to hang and move.

10. • Some vertical garden frames or
pouches can be purchased in sections,
so you can piece them together over
time to create a larger vertical garden.

11. • This strategy enables
new gardeners to start
small.

12. 3. Set Up Irrigation & Drainage
Systems Beforehand

13. • Proper irrigation and drainage are
important to a vertical garden to keep
plants healthy and prevent a large
mess.

14. • Typically, a watering
system needs to be
installed prior to
flowers or herbs being
planted.
• Therefore, planning
ahead can help you
avoid problems later.

15. • Furthermore, an
efficient or automatic
watering system can
make vertical gardens
much easier to
maintain.
• You can use less water,
you can water less often
and plants will grow and
look better.

16. 4. Use a Planter that has Individual
Compartments

17. • Planting structures can contain one big
planting bed or several separate
planting containers.
• The advantage to having individual
compartments is that flowers can be
removed or changes much more easily
or new herbs can be planted every year.

18. • As plants get larger,
they usually cover
the planting
structure, making it
appear as one large
single bed anyway.

19. 5. Get a Kit

20. • If you are planting
your first vertical
garden, an easy way
to learn how the
system works is with
a vertical garden kit.

21. • There are several different options to
choose from, depending on what you
want to plant and where you want your
garden to be located.

22. • Some kits include
everything a gardener
needs except plants
and soil, which can
make a gardening
project quick and
easy.

23. • Finished planter frames, waterproofing,
individual compartments, hanging
hardware, irrigation, drainage and even
automatic timed watering are some of
the features that kits provide.
