Anatomy of a Wooly Pocket Living Wall Installation
 

This is the wall that was constructed to accept our installation of Wally Three's from the Woolly Pocket Garden Company.

The Wall is 7' wide and 10' high and it's been constructed to be waterproof, like a shower wall, although that's not really necessary with the Wally's for interior use as they already have a built-in waterproof membrane.

The small square at bottom right is our water source. This is where the drip irrigation will be hooked up to water the wall at each service visit.

We chose to NOT permanently connect the drip system to the water source to minimize the chances of malfunctions.

 


Next, we covered the store merchandize to protect it from the potential dust that could emanate from the soil-less, lightweight potting medium that we would be filling the Wally's with.

We also protected the raw Oak floor with a waterproof blue tarp and a then placed a canvas tarp on top of that to help prevent any slip-and-falls during the installation.


The next step was setting up our vertical guide line along the left margin of the wall and beginning the installation of the Wally Three's.

Once completed, our living wall will be very slightly off-center in the space to prevent the plants from interacting with the store merchandize.
