Cape Town is rated as one of the most beautiful cities in the world. From nature, history, wine farms, beaches and mountains – one is spoilt for choice. All of these locations are not short of aesthetic beauty, and yet a few of the most fabulous spots in Cape Town have chosen to use one of our very own living green walls to lift their space. This begs us to ask “why?”

Who has chosen us to boost their space?

Rupert and Rothschild, a long-standing wine farm in the Cape with its roots in the soil-rich lands of Franschhoek is described by blogger, Caffeine and Cashmere, as:

  “…a dusty gravel road, a broad sweep of white-washed Cape Dutch architecture comes into view, vineyards rolling beyond. The glamorous restaurant is a haze of blonde wood that brings to mind the golden tint of Barons de Rothschild champagne, while a large terrace with taupe parasols and smart tables opens out over the green valley where the scent of olive trees floats on the warm air”

This farm is heavenly and yet our plant walls have been chosen to adorn their already incredible space with not one but three living plant walls.

Not far from Rupert and Rothschild is the magnificent Val de Vie Estate. Property24 recently reviewed Val de View Estate:

“Val de Vie Estate, rated as one of the top 10 lifestyle estates in the world for 2021, is also home to one of the top Golf Courses in South Africa for 2021 according to New World Wealth. It has undoubtedly noted this ongoing trend, having been repositioned as a wellness estate, and “this new positioning couldn’t have been better suited for the world we find ourselves in today.”

This estate is an exotic masterpiece of water, mountain, and landscaping. A number of residents have chosen us to lift their home spaces. Similarly, Pearl Valley Golf Estate have arched their entrance on either side with two plant walls.

Why, being spoilt for beauty, do people choose living plant walls?

The value that living walls bring to interior and exterior spaces is becoming more valued. Living Green Walls bring a unique element to any space. At the heart of the decision is the intrinsic value that plants make an impact on any living or retail space. In addition, they impact the social dynamic of any space.

It has been proven that people are happier in a green environment. They immediately reduce stress with tranquil, yet regal beauty. 

“Blood pressure, heart activity, muscle tension, and brain activity could all be improved by viewing plants for as little as 3 to 5 minutes”

Furthermore, these brands and spaces understand that greenery not only impacts an individual’s sense of well-being, but also impacts the cohesiveness of a space for those around it. 

“It has been demonstrated that small scale greenery, in particular, has a positive effect on social cohesion in neighbourhoods”

Plants are never a waste, rather they are an asset

So, despite the beauty around them and the lush flora and fauna each of these locations holds, you can never be short-changed with more plants in your living and retails spaces. They are never a waste, nor are they just a space filler. They have the ability to give guests, whether they be in your home or in a retail space, a sense of comfort, tranquillity and cohesion.

Perhaps then it’s worthwhile exploring how we, as a long-standing expert in the field of plant walls, can take your already beautiful home or venue and give it the ability to impact the intrinsic well-being of you and your clients.

This is what makes us unique

The reality is we know what plants work and what plants don’t work indoors and outdoors. Over the years, we have learnt through trial and error. We are indoor and outdoor plant experts. We can add a spin on design, but our choice of plants is well-researched and selected.

Every plant living on the wall falls into its own biome or little environment. We ensure that the biome is consistent for every plant that is planted. Each plant matches every other plant in their environment. One cannot simply mix and match for affect. And this is where the fuss of trying on your own will often leave you disheartened. We are unique experts in indoor plant walls, and we can make your living vertical garden a reality. And not for a day or a month, but for a lifetime.
