Creating a year round appealing green wall project takes some
consideration, not only in selecting appealing and reliable high
performing wire and anchoring components but also the selection of
appropriate climbing plants to suit your needs. To assist you in your
planning we have listed a range of things to consider before your green
wall project.
5. GREEN WALL SYSTEMS The length of runs and weight of plants will great
impact the components you will need for your green wall project. Those
spanning large distances will require more achorage and possiblely
bracing of the post systems. Each system will hold the wire from the
wall at different distances from the wall. Greenlline posts give the
maximum distance (approximatly 100mm). This space also allows for more
foliage to grow around the wire runs. Eye Nut anchors and Brackets
provide a cheaper alternative however can not hold the weight of the
Greenline posts. Green wall trellis systems can be installed into almost
any surface. Please consult with our sales team to discuss the correct
anchoring components for your project.
Each system requires a different level of skill for installation. The
Greenline line post systems is our best green wall system, is easy to
install and requires no specialised tools. Trellis using brackets use
our swageless Rapid Lock bolts which also do not require any specialised
swaging tools. All other systems require either hand swaging or
hydraulic swaging. PRODUCT SELECTION & INSTALLATION Dense foliage
plants can offer a natural way to cool building walls. If the green wall
project is on a Western facing wall (Southern Hemisphere) consider a
wire system with multiple wires and dense foliage to help with internal
cooling. The direction the green wall will face should be considered
when selecting the plants. If your green wall will face the afternoon
sun, you will need to consider sun-hardened plant varieties. Likewise if
the area will not receive much sun you will need a variety to suit.
Since many green wall projects are attached to building walls,
possibility covered by awnings. When designing the area you will need to
ensure suitable access to water or integrate a watering system into the
planning. In most projects plant selection will be of the evergreen
variety. Deciduous plant variety lose all their leaves each leave, in
this scenario a green wall wire trellis system should be a stylish and
beautiful design to compliment the area without the plant foliage.
