FAQs

Living wall costs typically range from $150-$230 per square foot, depending on size, plant selection, irrigation design, and accessibility.

How long do living walls last?
2
With routine maintenance, a professionally designed living wall can last 25+ years. My oldest wall is 13 years and still looking great! The longevity depends on a thoughtfully engineered system, selecting the right irrigation components, appropriate plant palette and regular maintenance schedules.
Do living walls require a lot of maintenance?
3
Our well-engineered living wall systems require maintenance only once per month or bi-monthly, significantly less than competitor systems needing bi-weekly service. A smart irrigation design minimizes daily care, while our maintenance visits include plant health checks, nutrient delivery, pruning, and system monitoring.
Do living walls attract bugs?
4
Properly maintained, hydroponic living walls rarely attract pests. Our high-quality growing medium, healthy plant selection, and regular maintenance prevent infestations. Pest prevention is part of our monthly service. Indoor environments with controlled conditions minimize pest problems compared to outdoor gardens.
