[dropcap size=small]Y[/dropcap]ou will have seen green walls adorning external spaces, but what about green walls in the home, such as in the living room or foyer?

The idea is catching on here and not simply because green walls are a pleasant visual feature.

“A small green wall of 1m by 2m can hold up to 60 plants – a number nigh impossible to have on the floor of a regular-sized balcony.”

Here are some ways you can incorporate green walls into different spaces at home.
