Identify the right wall in your home, which must be free and well lit. it’s best to opt for a wall near a window, to make sure the plants get plenty of sunlight.

Choose plants that are suitable for growing vertically: ivy, ferns, tillandsia or grasses, aromatic herbs such as mint, rosemary, sage and thyme, and succulents.
Make sure the plants you choose have similar requirements in terms of light and watering; this will simplify maintenance.

Create balanced, attractive compositions by mixing the different plant varieties with complementary colours and shapes.
Use the heights and arrangements of the plants to create depth and dimensional effects.

Take care of your plants with regular maintenance, which includes pruning, fertilising and pest control.
Monitor the needs of each plant carefully and adapt maintenance accordingly.
