How We Built Our Tropical Living Wall

[@Kaillyne]

This is a walkthrough of each plant type, where is the "building the living wall" part?

[@KnutNukem]

Hang bags, put plants into it, sprinkle. Profit $$$

[@knightandcarver]

😂😂😂I was wondering the same 😅🤟

[@marcod.godbout7120]

When do we get to the "how"....

[@krissifaith6709]

What is behind the wall to prevent mold?

[@FilthyFishinFreak]

The title is misleading.. I want to learn how to build it.. not what plants you put on it.

[@assenavogneram6213]

Love this Guy and his friendly face....the way hè explains everything and very carefull with the plants ... Ill start a Begonia wall 😅🙂

[@peaceloveandhappinessclub2667]

[@birdbrainsolutions6112]

Dude, you are such a beautiful guy (no sarcasm, genuine compliment) edit: and the living wall looks amazing!!

[@devindavis2595]

How did you water proof the dry wall behind it

[@David_Palka]

Looks awesome .... we have got it in all offices in our bussiness building and I need it in my flat also ... looking for some DYI solutions since the professional instalation is so expensive :D

[@lalamoballday]

Your description of each one had me like wow! You realy sold me! I know nothing about plants but I've been wanting to grow a wall, and you totally gave me more inspiration to do so. Thank you so much!

[@peaceloveandhappinessclub2667]

You should! :) Glad you can be inspired!

[@brianfasano9313]

Awesome video! Inspiring to make a living wall for the house.

[@ramrajephadtare3179]

Me 2

[@samuelthedude]

how do you make the water not stink? ours is getting a kind of soilish kind of mildewish smell I would describe as pond water.

[@juzzme3051]

what do you spray for thrips and spider mites???????? and how many times a week or a month? thanks

[@timellis9293]

I have a 17' wall in my living room that is 8 feet tall. I am thinking about doing this to the entire wall. I am a crazy cat dad and want to make a jungle for them to hang out in. Do you have any place I can find a good list of tropical plants that are critter safe? I keep finding small lists of potted plants but nothing like what I am looking for. I have found 2 huge branches from an old oak tree that I am going to chop up and mount to the wall so it looks like the branch is growing in and out of the wall in several places giving my critters a place to perch and sneak around. Love the videos. Just found you and am a new subscriber! Thank you.

Beautiful living wall! I suggest adding/cramming Episcia sp. too to break the "green" and add texture too. Other than that the wall looks mighty fine already 👌🏼

[@waruvarigata550]

[@CarlosRuiz-ji7nw]

How can I concentrate on the wall with you talking 😍😍

[@SphynxCrochet]

Beautiful wall! How do you guys water it?

[@peaceloveandhappinessclub2667]

We lightly water/mist the wall every day with a sprayer. :) super simple

[@lavenderpurp6610]

Do u recommend a living wall outdoors open and direct sunlight?

[@margaritaroa8826]

Beautiful

[@iFeroche]

GORGEOUS 😍🌱

[@jessicasmith488]

Are the plants within pots inside the pockets or just in moss within the pockets?

[@peaceloveandhappinessclub2667]

It’s usually a chunky mix :)

[@ryanbrink8098]

imagine i'm the one that ripped the wall down after it's life was over 😂😂😂 no literally ... IMAGINE 😂😂😂😂😂

[@mclovingyou888]

my only concern is that what if poisonous snakes decided to stay on the living wall

[@bobbiechinn9578]

Maybe show the how

[@Concentratedpowr]

Is it manually watered or drip system?

[@peaceloveandhappinessclub2667]

We water it by hand. :)

[@shuliugucci83]

whats the name of the water pump again?

[@selviarajeshwari]

Wow😍😍😍👍🏼

[@KnutNukem]

Won't this develope into one giant Living *Mold* Wall?

[@pareyn]

Its just potted plants in pockets...

[@ezrad5273]

what a beautiful girl she is, very fabolous!

[@hobin_rude]

Nice setup but please stop adding that stupid AY to plant names xD its 'adansonee' not adansoneeAY' LOL

[@graciewalls5994]

'adansonee-eye' is the correct latin pronunciation. Whenever botanical/scientific names have "ii" as the suffix, it is pronounced "ee-eye."

[@hobin_rude]

@@graciewalls5994 no it is not. English is the only language, where "i" is pronounced as "eye". In every other language including Latin, which is closest to Italian, "i" sounds like "ee". Pronouncing "ii" as "ee-eye" is just redundant and silly. Why not "hawa-ee-eye" then? In fact "ii" is just a long "i" ;)

[@craigpaulk2298]

⁠@@hobin_rudebecause Hawaii isn’t Latin. The ee-eye pronunciation is correct. All vowels are pronounced in Latin making adansonii, ah-don-sone-ee-eye.
