One plus about this type of garden is have you
ever complained about your back and knees
hurting. Vertical gardening enables you to grow
plants without ever hardly having to bend or get
down on your knees.
Grow vertically in plant pockets, hanging
planters, stacking containers, recycled pallets,
in stacked flower boxes, table garden systems,

plant trees, on tables and up-cycled ladders. If
you can imagine it, you can grow it.
You will be saving space with a vertical garden,
especially if you have no land or a very small
yard. Grow up the side of your fence, on a wall,
the deck, your balcony.
Some vertical garden systems are portable
and can be moved from outside to indoors on
wheeled apparatus.
There is also the possilbilty to grow inside
during colder months, using a grow light.
There’s much less work and time involved
when preparing vertical gardens. Uses less
water because in many vertical gardens, water
is recycled through the planting system.
You’re dog won’t dig up your garden, or other
animals. It’s an easier way to protect your plants
from soil-borne pests. Using less soil means no
weeds or fewer weeds.
