The 'green' revolution is fast catching on in the world. Everyone is trying their best to support nature and be as environmentally friendly as possible. One way that this has expressed is through the usage of green, foliage plants to act as fences. This is not a new idea but it's large scale implementation definitely is! However, just growing plants as fences has disadvantages too. Solving all these problems is the concept of the Mobile Vine Wall!
Mobile Vine Wall
When plants are allowed to grow as a fence, they need maintenance. They also need proper protection, tending and support in their initial growing stages. And, if there is any change in the extent of real estate holdings, it becomes real difficult to take down and rebuild these plant fences!

Now, Antoine Desjardins has creatively designed the Vine Wall. The construction of this wall is simple and sturdy. There is a concrete base to act as a support. On this is a wooden framework that is designed like a contemporary lattice. The base has space for soil in which vines and climbers could be planted. These climbers will grow and make use of the lattice for support.
Over time, the entire wooden area is covered by vines. These modular units of fencing can then be used. In case the plants need care, the fence can be brought outdoors only after the plants have grown. The best part is that these units are available in modular parts that can also be moved. Thus, it becomes possible to move and re-align the fence even on a daily basis! You could make use of these outdoors or even indoors. If it does not seem proper somewhere, just roll it away to a proper place!
