Maintenance, conservation and improvement work will be carried out on the vertical gardens at least once a month, through elevation systems, enabling the cleaning, pruning and fertilising over every level of plants and check-ups of the watering system.
Gardened walls do not merely improve a façade’s aesthetic aspects but also strengthen the heating insulation of buildings and are a source of biodiversity in spaces that do not allow room for conventional gardens.
