For those who have a lot of space in the backyard to reserve a part of it for planting a garden, they can use traditional planting methods. However, for those who do not have the space to plant, it is an alternative planting method that seems to be gaining popularity and has a number of benefits.
Why grow in your small backyard with vertical gardens?
Home gardening is becoming more and more popular these days with people trying to stay away from GMO vegetables and fruits. Fresh grown fruits and vegetables are more delicious and cheaper than what you can buy in grocery stores.
Vertical gardens increase performance in small yards
If you have a small patio, this alternative is for you, since growing plants vertically increases their yield per square meter, since more plants can be adjusted in the garden. A vertical garden is designed to encompass more plants in a very small space by stacking planters one on top of the other vertically. This method has a lot of advantages over traditional types of gardening. One of the biggest is that it does not require extensive space and daily maintenance is greatly reduced.
Some vertical structures such as arches, arches and pergolas, help to create the atmosphere of an outdoor garden space. They can also give a feeling of height and depth to a small space in another way.
Plants grow longer
Extend the number and type of plants that can be grown in your small yard garden. Some vegetables like squash that grow on vines and take up a great deal of personal space, can be trained to grow upright and on a trellis in a very compact space and done perfectly well.
They create a micro climate
A living natural shield can insulate a building (from heat, air pollution, or noise) and helps regulate temperature by cooling and shading an area. You can also create a microclimate by adding a vertical structure such as a teepee, trellis, pergola, arch or A-frame. The cooler place under the stand will suit shade plants and sun-loving van to prosper by climbing upward so they can get the best of both worlds.
Improve air quality and your health
Research has revealed that plants improve both indoor and outdoor air quality by removing harmful volatile organic compounds (volatile organic compounds) and absorbing pollutants. Today’s homes have been found to have consistently poorer indoor air quality than even outdoor pollution. So, plants that grow vertically, even in tight spaces, like window sills, balconies, front entrances, and overhangs, will make a huge difference to your health.
