Vertical gardens and landscaping – ideas for garden and balcony

Vertical gardens and plantings have grown increasingly popular, especially where space is limited. Vertical gardens take up less room than horizontal beds and bring just as much joy as ordinary gardening. These ideas can help inspire your own design.

Vertical gardens with trellises

When you think about possible designs for a vertical garden, consider a trellis. Wooden garden trellises can add rustic charm while supporting climbing plants. They are ideal for tomatoes, grapes, clematis, ivy, and climbing roses.

Arbors and pergolas – vertical gardens

When planted with climbing and hanging plants, a pergola can provide pleasant shade. Arbors are another option for vertical gardens with climbing plants. They are generally smaller than pergolas and often serve as symbolic doors or passages.

Raised beds – not vertical gardens, but still useful

Although raised beds are not technically vertical gardens, they offer excellent conditions for horticulture. Unlike many planting containers, raised beds usually share the same soil as the ground below. You can create them in different shapes and styles.
