Vertical gardening
Patrick Blanc has learned to grow in urban vertical sady.Etot amazing man - a genius. He came up with that, and so exist in nature - green walls. Only in nature they exist anywhere, and the plants they grow as rising. And Patrick Blanc has learned to build them in the cities. For his compositions do not need soil and expensive, and sometimes priceless meters above ground - and where they come from in the city center, where all have been built up? Ample that in any city there in abundance - just walls. Here, look:

His compositions are unique - he is never repeated.
Patrick Blanc born June 3, 1953 in Paris. Education - a botanist working at the National Research Centre of France. He studied the mountain forests of Malaysia and Thailand, and came to the conclusion that many plants do not need soil - enough vertical support. As a result, he developed a new method of landscaping walls.
By building facade mounted metal frame with a thin polymer flooring felt with capillary structure through which flows the water with dissolved fertilizer. That it planted seeds and seedlings of plants.
One of the most important advantages of this method of gardening buildings - the absence of traditional for modern hanging gardens of trays and pots to the ground, which are mounted at the top of the walls. The weight of the vertical garden is minimized. The average thickness of the "green" wall no more than a few centimeters, and its square meter weighs less than 30 kg.
This maestro
His work can be found in many different parts of the world. But the main place of sale of original ideas of his own home has become, over time, turned into an oasis of tropical jungle, near Paris. Single storey dwelling Patrick Blanc - is both a lovely garden, a working laboratory and a unique collection of exotic plants in perfect harmony with each other. There are no internal doors, from one room to fly little bird on the floor from time to time jump Malaysian blue-green frogs, and in one of the shady corners of a large lizard lurking brought from Madagascar.
