by Designer Vertical Gardens on Mar 02, 2023

Who does not love growing beautiful plants to make the home surroundings more vibrant? Plants are good not only for the environment but also for the well-being of the people. But the common problem people face nowadays is the need for sufficient space for extensive gardening. The indoor vertical garden is one of the best innovations to make the small open area look more appealing. Often referred to as living green walls, moss walls, and live walls, vertical gardens have been around for a long time. Growing plants vertically on a panel, either self-supporting or attached to a wall, is known as "vertical gardening." But natural plants demand regular watering, fertilising, pest control, sunlight and much more. Compared with natural plants, artificial vertical gardens demand less work and provide more benefits like low cost and maintenance. Thus, these realistic-looking fake vertical gardens have gained popularity amongst homeowners and interior designers in Australia. You can grow flowers or plants on a trellis, a tower of pots, or garden netting in a faux vertical garden. There are numerous options for setting up an artificial indoor vertical garden, from herbs and perennials to annuals. Let us learn some eye-catching indoor vertical garden ideas that are perfect for your small spaces. Succulent Frame Vertical Garden Select a wooden frame that fits well into the desired wall. Fill the frame with artificial succulent plants of different shapes, colours, and sizes. Since these fake succulent plants last long and need low maintenance, they are the best home decor item. It would look lovely in a bedroom or on a dining room wall. Hanging Planter When you run out of floor space, a DIY hanging planter can add greenery to your home. With plenty of varieties, from ferns to orchids, these magnificent hanging plants can add depth, colour and a sense of serenity. You can hang them on pots or baskets through a rope and hook to brighten up your balcony or window of the room. Indoor Ladder Garden An old ladder is an excellent solution for growing several indoor plants in a small area. Lean your old ladder against the wall and use it as tiered shelves for plants. On the ladder steps, you can build shelves with wood planks and set flower or plant pots on them. Tiered Hanging Pot This DIY tiered hanging pot can uniquely display your fake plants. You can use unwanted wooden pieces, rope, and flower pots. Begin by creating a square with a wood plank, then trace the lip of the pot on the wood and drill a hole along the traced area. Now, place the flower pots on these squares and bring the beauty of nature to your space. Lattice Vertical Garden A lattice can create magic if you have a large blank wall in the house. Take sturdy, lightweight planters that can hang from the trellis and place them around the lattice so that you can rearrange them whenever needed. Hooks are necessary to attach or remove them. Vertical Miniature Garden A small vertical garden on your balcony is perfect for your small apartment. Take a wooden plank and nail it to an empty wall. Fill vivid coloured pots with soil and fake plants, and nail them on the wooden plank in the vertical position. You are all set to transform your balcony into your favourite spot. Iron Grid Pot Planter Weld the iron rods and make a wall grid or arrange them in any desirable way. Paint the iron grid in a pastel shade, so it shines behind the green plant, and hang the pots vertically. You can create a focal point of a particular space of your home this way. Small and Large Pots Set some small planters with life-like green plants like pothos, bushes, cactus, ferns, and many more to make a statement in your space. You can take things to the next level by placing large artificial plants and setting up good lighting, highlighting your home's dark corners. Bottled Vertical Garden Time to use old mineral water and soda bottles. Take old plastic bottles and make a rectangular cut on them using a utility knife. Fill these bottles with soil and the faux indoor vertical garden plant of your choice, then line them on balcony railings or a wall. You can securely tie them with twine and create a beautiful vertical bottle garden. Chalkboard Planter Take a chalkboard and hang it on your kitchen counter. Fill the planting frame with soil and plant and angle the frame in a position of your choice. Family members can demand their favourite dish by writing on it, creating a delightful yet modern home environment. Air Plant Vertical Garden Take the wooden board, hammer the nails in it, and ensure that there is enough room to loop the string around them. Tie the string to one nail and start wrapping in a pattern. When finished, insert the air plants into the string's web. Repeat the same process with other wooden boards. Finally, fasten each board to a blank wall. DIY Strawberry Tower When there is less space to create a garden, the strawberry tower is an ideal way to transform your home’s entrance. You can make it from unused plastic piping and cut it into tiny sections. Place some tiny indoor artificial vertical plants in it and then stand up the whole thing in the weighted clay pot. Upcycled Wooden Pallet You can create a magnificent wall unit of potted plants by reusing the wooden pallet. You can lean it near your favourite nook, put faux plants and flower arrangements, and add an extra flair to the room’s decor. Stand-Alone Wall This indoor vertical garden is great for showing off your beautiful faux plant collection while taking advantage of the available space. The number of artificial plants on the wall looks realistic and adds an aesthetic touch to the space. Shoe Organiser A shoe organiser makes a cute and inexpensive planter for growing vertically indoor plants. Attach the organiser to a wooden or PVC frame or a piece of lattice to protect the wall. Put fake miniature plants directly in the pockets as per your choice. You can experiment with plant placement whenever you like. Upcycled Dresser Don’t throw out an old dresser; fill it with soil and shrubs of various sizes. Stagger how far the drawers are pulled out to create a cascading waterfall-like effect. Tin Can Fence Garden Spray-painted tin cans make for absolutely adorable fake vertical gardening, not to mention highly affordable planters. It can be a fun yet relaxing place watching the green plants with the prettiest pops of colour from both flowers and pretty painted cans. Tire Garden A tire garden is an upcycling project in which you can convert used or recycled tires into planters that can hold various plants, from vegetables to flowering shrubs. You can set up a tire garden by filling a used tire with soil and then planting shrubs or plants of your preference. Stack the tires to create raised beds or use single tires as separate and contained planters. Add a pop of colour by painting the outside of the tire planters to match your fake vertical garden design or landscaping.

HOW TO SET UP AN INDOOR GARDEN

by David Eden on May 04, 2021

it's more difficult than most people think to get Mother Nature inside your home. Consider this guide from Designer Vertical Gardens for creating container gardening if you want to create a beautiful indoor garden. Decide on a style of garden When gardening indoors, there are generally two types of gardening i.e Container gardening and Hydroponic gardening. In this guide, we will talk about traditional gardening which is called container or pot gardening. Container gardens are a good option for someone who wants to rearrange their plants or want to bring the outdoors in the future. They can grow any kind of plant of any size. Choose the right space Selecting an indoor space that can aid in the growth of your plants is very important for creating a good indoor garden. Choose a location with plenty of windows and sunlight; east and west-facing windows are ideal. Place your garden (container or hydroponic) as close to a window as possible to get more heat and sunshine. Avoid the room for gardening that has a cold temperature because cold can slow down the growth of your plants. Avoid choosing that area that has a fan because it can dry out the plants which are not good. Properly control the environment One of the biggest reasons for planting indoor gardening is that we can easily monitor the environment. If done in a proper way, it can make your indoor garden more beautiful. Generally, you're responsible for checking three things i.e air temperature, water frequency, and soil condition. This solely depends on the system of the garden that you're using and on the type of plants you're going to grow in your indoor garden. There are few tools that you can use to control the environment easily. Consider using soil heat mats. Most plants prefer soil temperatures of 75– 85 degrees Fahrenheit (24–29 degrees Celsius). Particularly in the winter, you probably don't want your house to be that hot. To solve this problem, you can buy electric mats that can heat pots from the bottom and can regulate the soil temperature. Get yourself a drip system. Watering your plants regularly is a difficult habit to develop; instead of setting frequent reminders, invest in a drip system. This works in a way that it provides each plant with a set of small tubes and has a timer that switches the water on and off for a set time each day. Choose a proper lighting system. Though windows provide some natural light, still you are responsible for providing your plants with artificial light. Fluorescent light tubes are usually the best choice because they are inexpensive and provide good results. You may also purchase a special heat lamp for growing indoor plants. Choose your plants Just like an outside garden, there's a huge variety of plants you can grow inside including vegetables, berries, or herbs. Before going to the nursery and picking a random plant, you have to research properly what plant will grow better in your garden. Some of the indoor plants include: Vegetables : Lettuce, carrots, peas, and mushrooms, as well as fruits like strawberries. Herbs: Basil, bay, chives, oregano, parsley, rosemary, sage, tarragon, and thyme. Flowers : Peace lily, African violet, marigold, begonia, cactus, and succulents. If you're the one who is up for container gardening, then consider the following guide to learn complete details. Choose your containers or pots You have a lot of choices for containers to plant in because you're growing indoors. You may purchase pots from standard garden supplies or can be creative and use old vases or plastic bottles. In either case, consult Designer Pots, we have premium quality pots or planters which are: ✓ Light-Weight ✓ Easily Portable ✓ Earth Friendly ✓ Modern ✓ Weather Resistant You don't need a big container to start seeds, but you'll need a container twice the size of the root ball if you're transplanting a plant. Otherwise, search for a container with drainage holes in the rim, or simply drill holes into any container. Plastic Containers or Pots are your best choice because: Plastic containers or pots are the best at retaining moisture, and Designer pots are your most authentic choice. You can also try recycling old coffee cans. For additional drainage, line the bottom of your container with rocks; if you're using a wooden container then look for one made of redwood or cedar, which are both rot-resistant. Avoid using any container that has been handled with chemicals, as this can cause harm to your plant. Create your potting mix Unfortunately, you can't simply take a handful of soil from your garden and use it to fill your containers or planters. Outside soil also contains diseases and insects that can destroy your plant over time, and it is rarely the correct sand/clay balance for optimal porousness. Although you can buy pre-made potting mix but making your own can save you money and ensure the consistency of your mix. You'll need 1-part coir peat, 1-part vermiculite, and 2 parts compost to make your potting mix. Both of these can be found at your nearest gardening store. Rehydrate the coir peat brick by soaking it; usually, these come with instructions so follow the soaking instructions. Mix the coir peat and vermiculite thoroughly before adding the compost. Worm castings are a great addition to your soil, add ½-1 cup of worm castings to your mix before planting your containers. Set up your garden system You'll need to build a shelving system for your plants if you're planting a big indoor garden. Otherwise, use the guidelines above to choose a location for your container garden. You'll also need to set up your control variables, such as lighting, water, and temperature controls. If you're using a shelving system, hanging fluorescent lights and your drip system on the shelves should be easy. Otherwise, work on your room before all of the components are well adjusted. Heat mats should be installed properly under containers or pots. Buy timers for your light source, heat mats, and drip systems to switch them on and off at specific times of the day. Remember that different plants need different levels of light so group them appropriately. Put all the light-loving plants together and all the shade loving plants together, and then adjust the light accordingly. Maintain your plants You must have to maintain your garden after it has been planted to keep it in a good condition. Ensure that the plants receive enough sunlight and water and that the soil temperature does not fall below 70 degrees Fahrenheit (21 degrees Celsius). You'll need to transplant your plants into larger pots or split them into more plants as they get too large. You can order your new indoor garden pots by visiting Designer pots. We have a wide range of decorative pots from stone rectangle planters to beautiful fresh flower pots. Remove any plants that have brown spots, are wilting, or are dying from the garden to avoid the rest of the garden from disease or pests. Every few months, you must have to add compost or fertilizer to the containers to help the plants get the nutrients they need. If you have a drip irrigation system, you can add a liquid fertilizer every few weeks to keep your plants healthy. Set your pots in trays of rocks so that the water that drains out will keep them moist as they grow. We continue our drive towards customer excellence with our highly qualified and experienced horticultural staff, on hand to help with plant-related questions. Create a pretty home for your plants to live in and add heaps of character to your garden with the selection of indoor garden pots and planters. The Designer Pots planters and pots come in a variety of colors, sizes, and materials. So visit the store and grab yours now!

BEST OPTIONS FOR LOWEST MAINTENANCE INDOOR FAKE AND REAL PLANTS Tradescantia Zebrina Place it in bright indirect light, water when the top inch of soil dries out, fertilize once a month (except in the winter), and try to keep it in a humid environment to keep this plant happy. Although it likes to be kept moist, it can survive a few missed waterings. Just keep an eye out for yellow leaves, which might indicate that you're overwatering. Alternative: You can replace Tradescantia Zebrina with an Artificial Lavender Plant. A fake potted lavender will bring ultimate elegance and vibe to your space. Pothos One of the most forgiving houseplants is this trailing plant. It can withstand both low and high light levels, so you can place it almost anywhere in your house. Water it when the top inch or so of soil dries out for best results. Alternative: Still confused about this Pothos, then without giving you a second thought, select the beautiful Artificial Olive Tree with Olives. You can never go wrong with this in your garden. This amazing tree will add Mediterranean vibes to your house. Air Plants Air plants are appealing because they can be shown in a variety of ways, including on stands, terrariums, and even in refrigerator magnets. They're also very low maintenance since they get most of their nutrients from the air. Simply soak them in a water bath every few weeks (shaking off any excess water) and mist in between. Alternative: Well, you have an amazing alternative to this air plant. Consider this Artificial Flowering White and Orange Peace Lily from Designer Vertical Gardens to awestruck your visitors. Chinese Evergreen The Chinese evergreen plant, also known as the Silver Bay Aglaonema, has a lovely painted look to its leaves. It is a low-maintenance indoor plant. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings to help it thrive. It requires a little light and little water to survive. Alternative: Looking for the alternative? Get your hand on Artificial Geranium Hanging Bush with Red Flowers, this will create a vibe you want to create to impress everyone around. Red Aglaonema This bright pink and green plant is as simple to care for as it is attractive. It can tolerate low light but more indirect light brings out the colors more. This beauty like to dry out between waterings, similar to the Chinese evergreen plant, and can tolerate the occasional missed watering. Alternative: Looking for some other light color? Try the artificial Calla Lily Plant from Designers Vertical Gardens. Its elegant white flowers which are made up of real touch material won't let your guests guess that it's artificial. You can place it anywhere in your house due to its evergreen nature. Can't take care of real plants? Don't worry! Visit our store online to get whatever you're looking for.
