We our office remodeled last year, the owner had them put in a living wall. It looked great for the first 6 months or so, but is getting ragged. It is planted with pothos. Even though pothos is a low light plant, I think the lack of light is an issue as it only gets fluorescent light for 8-10 hours, five days a week.
It uses a watering trough design where each plant pot has wicks that suck water from a central channel. If it's left until the channel is completely dry, then the plants start wilting. Watering any more often, and the pots get too wet and the plants start rotting off.
A maintenance contract is available from the company that installed the wall, but at almost $1000 a month, we've been inclined to spend $50 a month on new plants.
Any one have any suggestions?
Thanks
