vertical gardening
Growing plants skyward
Vertical gardening is the practice of growing plants on upright structures rather than in traditional ground beds.
Trellises, wall-mounted planters, stacked containers, and living walls all qualify.
The approach suits small spaces like balconies and patios: Vertical gardening transformed our tiny courtyard.
Vining crops, herbs, and ornamentals adapt particularly well.
