  6. Vertical Garden Before starting a vertical garden, consider the following elements: • Structural support: It’s important to make sure that a wall can take the added weight. • Hanging systems: Several commercial frames and baskets are made for a variety of applications. • Plants: Experts suggest planting in themes or “pallets,” such as ingredients for salsa, herbs for Italian cooking and low-water plants. • Maintenance: Figure out how to safely reach the highest part of the garden. • Sunlight: The direction a wall faces will influence plant selection and irrigation needs. • Water: Drip irrigation systems are recommended. Runoff that doesn’t drain quickly may create problems. • Source: Urban Corps of San Diego County
