A greenwall is an indoor or outdoor vertical vegetation system, often affixed to a wall or structure. They range in size from as small as a picture frame to as large as the side of an entire building.
Plants are affixed to a structure and watered from the top of the wall, often using a drip irrigation system. Excess water is caught in a basin and recirculated through a pump system. The greenwall in this exhibit utilizes foam panels and a grid system to hold the plants in free standing modules attached to plastic panels.
