Thanks! I have to say that this area was too shady and my bromeliads were not so bright and colourful after a few months! Find somewhere brighter for bromeliads.
I tried your method for a living wall. I almost paid to have a felt pocket system made. I’m so glad I did not spend a ton of money for the felt pocket system. Your method is so much better and the metal grid I bought was only $7 US dollars per panel. I made the living wall myself and it looks absolutely phenomenal!!!!!! You can’t even see any of the nursery pots the plants came in. Thank you for your tutorial!!!!
@@leafing.around Hi Irene, I do have an IG account under the name, 'FROM A GOOD PLACE'. I'm going to take pictures of the area soon when the weather calms down but please take a look at my garden. P.s. It's still a work in progress💛🌻😌🌻💛.
We are building a vertical wall and will have plants from our orphanage get a new vertical home! And so much appreciated when you go over your mistakes or what you would have done differently.
Love your vertical garden and gain knowledge about focal point in vertical gardening ,also cement paint to pots..Most useful tip to hook pots on wall...It's great watching....Thanks for sharing....
I just love the ideas you shared. I learned a lot from you. It's like attending a lecture and talking to a friend for advice at the same time. When I say aesthetically pleasing, this is what I mean. Ty so much Ma'am Irene.
Inspiring! And I took it to task. 1. Found an old building material 2. S hooks 3. Now waiting for my plants to arrive from nursery! Thank you for making such wonderful contents!
It’s a beautiful vertical plant wall Irene! Wonderfully done! 🌺❤️🌺 I love your videos and learn so much about plants and how to create a beautiful garden! 😍
I am from the Philippines. I love your vlog on vertical garden. Your so kind to show how to inovate on how to use that ordinary pot in a vertical garden. I want to use my ordinary plastic pots with plants already in it. I want ti declatter cause my pots are on plant racks and on the floor surrounding our house including the garage. I have a lot of plants cause i am a plant lover since i was a child. I want to try a vertcal garden and place it around the cement fence we have. I am so happy to accidentally viewed your vlog. I don't usually appreciate vligs from other countries as they don't have the same weather such ours. But we are neigbor country and i am so happy to note that. Our plants are almost the same and if ever we may not have all kinds of plants from your country and visa versa. I love tropical arrangement and that makes as one. Thank you hope to see more of your vlogs. God Bless you
I love the living art concept. Can create a strong point and blend visually. Will definitely attempt next growing season. And can move the pots around as the season progresses with the sun.🍀🌴☘️🥀🌺🌸🌼
Thanks for giving me so many ideas! I was struggling to design a system with maximum flexibility. I have watch so many wall garden videos and the structures are wonderful but fixed. Your system incorporates many items I have unused in my yard and now I can start to use them and begin to create! Thanks for the inspiration!
Hallo Irene. Your "Apa kabar ?" make a good start to my day ! I am Indonesian living in The Netherlands and searching for vertical gardening ideas for my spring project. You help me a lot with this video. Semoga kamu sehat selalu ya 😘
Hello Maya! Terima kasih - that's so awesome to hear! Hey you must be able to get good supplies of tropical plants - big large scale growers in the Netherlands right?
@@leafing.around Thanks for your response. Yes we do have tropical plants growers here. It is just that Garden Centers are currently still closed at least till mid March. Hopefully the measures against C-19 will be more relaxed after and GCs will be allowed to open their doors again. If not, then I have to settle for webshops option.
Absolutely Gorgeous! Kudos to you for sharing your Lessons Learned! I and the rest of the viewers appreciate the time and effort you put into the video and the work on your wall! We LOVE people who share tips and trips to make our lives easier and more beautiful! Namaste.
Thank you, Jesse! Would it sound weird if I thank Covid.... without it I would not be stuck at home to have the time and energy to do this! Now I am travelling again and can't find time to even look at my plants😅
I’ve been looking for materials that’d fit my desired area for a vertical plant and here you are with the simplest and easiest way to do it. Love your aesthetics and composition too. Thank you for this video. 🤩
I'm actually planning to do this too but I find it hard to source some information on how to do it, but now I'm super happy that I finally found this video of yours that's very detailed and informative!! 💚 Thank you so much, it motivated me to finish my own living wall sooner, i'm excited! ❣️
This knocked my socks off. I LOVED how practical you were, finding different affordable solutions and adapting along the way while retaining a sense of the aesthetic. I learnt so much, including your (to me) totally refreshing approach. I’ve been overthinking this and not getting anything done, so I’m off to find some sturdy wire mesh (I may or may not paint it in the short term) and wire up a heap of old black pots and raid my stash of propagated but unloved hardy tropicals. I can worry about auto-irrigating later!
Yay!! And try keep the wall colour and pot colour about the same! But if not don't worry, if your plants are lush will grow and cover the pots anyway. And and another tip! Pot them in such a way that all plants have the same watering frequency need. I just water all everyday....and so they are in very well draining mix.
Excellent video Irene. This is a great way of covering a wall by making it more interesting to look at. In the UK, we have only started in the past 10 years doing this. In South East Asia, you lead the world with this kind of gardening. In the UK we call them "living walls" and naturally we are governed by our climate as to what to plant. Your choice of plants are stunning. Great job Irene!
Omg! Just this morning I was gonna ask for a Tropical youtube gardner and This come up.I was'nt even looking at tropical plants. I just loooove this video cause I can relate to this all round. I make my own cement pots and painted cement on plastic pots, I did a pallet planter using house plants . This video is sooo much up my ally. Love the idea of just hanging the pots to change around. I also do have a small hanger thing that I hang a few plants from on a fence. Soooo looking forward to binge watch ur videos!
Madam Greetings from North East India. love your beautiful vertical garden.Actually i was planning to make one, as i too have a lot of foliage and succulents leftovers and reinforce rods from my constructions works.Then i was searching the net then viola!! saw this informative video.Thank you so much.God Bless you and keep yo safe during this pandemic
oh amazing, i love what you do! i have been painting all of my pots with concrete and glue as well and kinda do a very similar gardening style here in Bangkok, tropical gardening is just so much fun! great video 😊🤗
Just love that you do all the hardwork for bringing something beautiful like this ❤️❤️❤️❤️ great standout videos of amazing plant decors and amazing music💜💜💜💜
This vertical garden is what I really need right now coz I need more space for my plants in our backyard.. you've given me the greatest idea ever coz I have a really spacious wall where I can hang some of my plants! You're the best plantita ever! 😍🌹😘
I don't have any idea about photography but every time I've watched your video I've learned something new aside from plants..thank you for sharing us new knowledge..I hope that you will not stop in imparting your new ideas..Stay safe❤
Wow you made it beautiful vertical garden. Many thanks Miss Irene need to make this for my small garden because no space at all for other plants. Your so creative woman. God bless you always. 😍
Beautiful wall and it is truly a work of art. You have definitely inspired me to create several wallscapes in my backyard tropical garden. I am still in the early stages but I am highly motivated. Thank you.
I am a plant fanatic also and I just love your videos, though I live in a much colder climate and cannot have all these frost-tender beauties. I do have house plants and I have a small area I call my "tropical garden" which springs from the ground when the weather warms up. I get inspiration from your lush garden and design style, adapting to plants that I can grow here in my garden. I bought you a cup of coffee recently and didn't recognize the charge to my account, so I looked up Irene Chen. And now I know you are an award-winning photographer of newborn babies, too!! I think you are amazing, multi-talented, and such a delightful sense of humor. Thank you for sharing your passions!
Thank you Tamara! Appreciate so v much the coffee! 🥰😃☕ My photography had really taken a backseat with my current obsession with plants and gardens! Are you in the UK?
@@leafing.around No. I'm in the U.S. in Oregon. We get a lot of freezing weather in winter. My Dad was a professional photographer...and I am plant and garden design-obsessed. It is all fun!!
First time I saw your vlog it's informative so I subscribe, the focal point is the middle of your vertical plant, keep up the good work, am watching fr. Ontario, California
Wow wow wow, what an exciting creative video. Was looking for a simple frugal way to improve my back yard n found you. Lov the cement painted pot. “PERFECT”. Will sit today n binge on the rest of ur videos. Thank you so much for very interesting ideas. Not into the ordinary! O, n listening to the clear soft voice is relaxing. ZEN - Tanks again.
@@lisanicolegreiner6204 the wall contractor left it for me...maybe ask your hardware store for "adhesive cement" ...I think some are sold blended already
Good you kept in mind watering needs of every plant for instance you probably wouldn’t want a succulent there because it would be too much water for it
Thank you! I am in the process of making a succulents vertical garden, not sure how to use the variety of different types of succulents, you give me some direction! I like the idea of recycled materials! We need to look after our planet! Once again thank you! 🙏🌺🙏
Not only i'm learning about plants, i'm learning about photography and plant placement designs from you. Love this!!!
Am always happy to share ideas! Glad you find them helpful!
good
I love it! Am planning to do this. I've learned from you.
I love the colour pop with the bromeliads
Thanks! I have to say that this area was too shady and my bromeliads were not so bright and colourful after a few months! Find somewhere brighter for bromeliads.

Omg, great idea for hanging our regular pots! Usually, the ones for hanging are more expensive, so this saves us all some money! THANK YOU!!
Irene, If only you knew how much you've helped me with this video.....This makes my day!!! AWESOME and Thank You
Oooh? So happy to know this! Do you have an IG I can go peek at your progress later?

Its better for the world...and for my wallet! And I really like the non commercial, off the shelf look...can express ourselves
@@leafing.around What kind of glue did you mix in with the cement, please?
