Generally speaking, plant wall includes ecological plant wall and artificial plant wall.
Artificial plant wall is a wall decorated with highly simulated artificial plants. People use the similarity between artificial plants and actual plants to achieve the effect of plant wall or the effect that cannot be achieved by actual plants. The real plant wall should be designed according to the habits and varieties of plants, but no artificial plant wall is required. Compared with the actual plant wall, the artificial plant wall has low cost and good effect.
Green walls are walls covered with green plants. We make use of the advantages of plant roots to adapt to the environment to make plants grow on vertical walls. Generally speaking, the green wall can be more beautiful by setting a lamp suitable for plant growth on the top of the green wall.
At present, there are two green wall installation technologies in China. One is a green wall with a frame, and the other has no frame.
- Green frameless wall
Frameless green walls use flexible materials and can be directly installed on brick walls, concrete walls, wood walls, etc. The frameless green wall has the advantages of frameless natural landscape, low maintenance cost, ultra-thin, ultra light, flexibility and convenience.
- Green wall with frame
Lay the frame on the original wall. Frames must be affixed to walls or placed in parallel at intervals of 5 to 10 cm. Then put the flowerpot containing the plants into the frame. The advantage of this technology is that it is more convenient to replace equipment. But the disadvantage is that the frame must be fixed on the wall, and the frame is easy to rust and peel off. Long term use will bring risks. Therefore, it is better to have green walls without frames.
