Several types of facilities exist. The most expensive solutions are generally those found on the market, such as the trellis to be fixed in a concrete floor or earth. PVC or wood, the trellis can easily be adorned with all kinds of climbing plants: glycine, jasmine, or ivy to cite a thin sample. There are also ready-to-use modules designed for growing plants. They can take the form of small multipocket bags equipped with geotextile walls. To fix on a vertical panel, they will give to your outside a resolutely modern adventurous spirit, while playing a role occulting.

The anti-vis-à-vis walls can be made from recycled materials such as pallets, zinc pots, gutters, or plastic bottles. The diversion of these different containers does not lack originality. Practical to accommodate climbing and hanging plants, they are ideal to hide you from a too present neighborhood. Think of climbing roses, honeysuckle, passionflower, but also aromatic plants large beans and salads.
