Wall nature: a vertical planter with watering system

If you live in the city and you're limited by floor/ground space, planting on your walls is an option. Spanish company Wallnatura has created a system of modular planters that come with a maintenance-light watering system. You only need to water about every 15 days and that water goes into a hydrophilic system of 4 channels that distribute water.

Interesting. What are the wall units made of? Plastic (PCV)? Pottery?

[kirstendirksen]

@GodVlogger Good question. I just checked their website. They write: "Support: 100% recyclable polypropylene. Filter: 100% recycled polypropylene."

It would be amazing to have one of those in the kitchen! Do you know how heavy they are and where people in the US could buy one?

[kirstendirksen]

@TheDenisedrake I don't know how heavy they are, but you can see all the different sizes on their site ( wallnatura . net ). They have an email address there as well wallnatura at wallnatura . com

@TheDenisedrake Hi, Wallnatura speaking...

Yes we ship to the US, and worldwide, but at the moment not directly from the web. just send us an email and we send you back a quote for both products and shipping ! wallnatura at wallnatura . com

[TheDenisedrake]

Drat! They don't ship to the US.

sweet I'd put one in my kitchen for sure. I wonder if they get the floor a little dirty sometimes?
