Vertical Garden at Trunk Bar
March 4th, 2010 | Posted by in LusheAn interesting DIY vertical garden at Trunk Bar in Melbourne Australia. They have used stackable plastic crates made by Twin Pack. If there were a few more plants, this could create a dramatic effect. This is an excellent solution for anyone looking to do this at home.

i think that plant is rhagodia sp. – good plant choice – its really hardy and will survive the harsh sunny conditions – please take another photo in 6months? really want to see how this works……
Thanks Garden Beet,
The plants have probably been there 6 -12 months already. As you can see from the photos the soil/potting mix is very dry.

Just mix the soil with Hydrocell and your problem is over!!
It is not Rhagodia but Rosemary that they use in the kitchen. I know the guys at Trunk. So I saw it and I don’t actually like it. Crazy that they pay so much only because Joost made it.
I personally think that looks crap for most of the year and I’m not also fund of Joos installations. Lack of soul…
No! Please not another person that likes Fyto-people products!
There are so many natural products that last longer, have a better pH and permorm better in the long term. If there is a company I don’t trust is Fytogreen. Sorry!
Whao, fantastic use for those old trays. They are growing Rosmary, right? Matti
Good post
Turning a garden on its side to create a verdant, vertical surface not only looks good but promotes wildlife, good air quality and sustainabilty too
Most living wall designs can work in a home environment and more and more people are installing them
Great way to recycle, and this wall could be built on any surface and to any height.
