Here are the best evergreen and perennial flowers to plant for your living wall this Spring.

Tips for a Thriving Spring Wall
- Choose the Right Plants for the Space: Select plants based on your wall’s sunlight exposure. For example, north-facing = little sunlight, which = more leafy foliage plants such as ferns and grasses.
- Water when required: The PlantBox living wall is unique in the sense that it makes looking after plants easy! By easy we mean really easy! Just simply top up the top PlantBox trough and wait for water to fill up the built in reservoir. Once the reservoir is full, then any excess water will drain into the PlantBox below and keep going.
- Fertilise as needed: Use a soluable pellet or liquid feed for best results. You only need to do this twice a year!
- Prune and Maintain: Trim spent flowers and foliage to promote continuous greenery

By incorporating these evergreen and perennial plants into your PlantBox living wall, you can create a stunning vertical garden that provides year-round interest. Whether you prefer bold and vibrant colours, or soft, delicate foliage, there’s a perfect plant for every living wall.
Happy gardening with PlantBox!
