Living Walls for Plymouth University
Green Walls designed, installed and maintained by the Scotscape Smartscape Team
These living walls measure a total 58.5m2.
The largest of the two living walls wraps around the entrance the 'Sustainability Hub' building on campus, which uses the flexibility of the Fytotextile Living Wall system to full advantage, following the curved lines of the structure.
Installed in the depths of winter the planting has now developed extensively!
Planting Plan
The Planting Plan
The Planting Plan selected for this project follows a block planting layout as shown below.
Wall 1
Species selected include: polystichum poloybelpharum, iris foetidissima, Liriope muscari and pachysandra terminalis.
The block planting method creates a strong and textural design, larger specimens have developed very successfully and colour and leaf shapes within the scheme bring stunning visual and biodiverse results. Plants have also been chosen for their suitability to survive well in the coastal environment.
