Vertical Gardens are perpendicular hydroponic systems that maximize the use of space for growing a variety of beneficial plants.  These unique growing systems come in three basic forms: tubes, coconut-cylinders or walls.  All are designed to be easily moved indoors or outdoors as desired.

The Gardens optionally come with all the necessary components: a water reservoir, submersible water pump, water-transmissive mediums, irrigation tubing, nutrients and, of course, plants.
