These days, more and more people are discovering the joy of playing in the dirt. Of course, grown-ups might prefer the term “gardening.”
Got a dull spot in your yard? A vertical garden will surely solve your problem and it’s very easy to build with cinder blocks!
No mortar and mason’s trowel required. All you need is landscape glue to secure your cinder blocks and you’re ready to plant succulents, flowers, trailers and even herbs to give life to a boring spot.
Plastic bins are made from 100% new Polypropylene material (PP) and are food safe (BPA free, lead free, mercury free).
This garden wall is modular so you can definitely arrange it in any way that you want to perfectly fit the space that you have. Go as high as you want as long as you’re confident it won’t fall! ;)
You can also do away with the adhesive in your materials list if you plan to make it low, like the one shown above. This way you can disassemble your garden wall, relocate it or reuse the cinder blocks for other purposes in the future!
Can you see a spot for a cinder block vertical garden somewhere in your home? :)
