This follow up is so useful and it is great to see the progress of your beautiful garden. It really helps to see that the effort was worth it. Thank you
So happy you found it useful! Thank you for watching home you give it a try 😊
Thank you for doing a follow up! I’m usually hesitant to try some diy projects because I never know if it’s just a waste of money and effort or if it will be successful. Will definitely give this a try! ❤
Amazing !! I completely understand what you mean… this one I got to say it was worth it in so many ways ! 🫶🏼 good luck making yours 🙂
I love how you gave the hummingbird such respect. 💛☮️🦋
Awwwww !!!! They are so cute ! When I forgot to refill the bottle... they come actually flying inside the house making a lot of noise ! Is very cute ! 😂😂😂😂😂
You are an excellent teacher. Very engaging and informative.
:) you are so sweet ! thank you so much for those kind words !
@@AIRStudio-AngelRiveros I agree!! you´re an excellent, motivating and inspirational teacher. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and passion. Blessings!!
@@soniavelarde8581 ! 🤩🤩 thank you so much ! I am so happy you find it useful! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Lovely, very inventive and economical!
I am so happy you like it ! Thank you very much for watching, hope you give it try! 😅
That is good about the water not reaching the wall. I was thinking the same thing to use a plastic sheet for the walls whether inside or out.
Thank you for the follow up. Always nice to see if the project held up.
wyntersteele1a yes ! Is always good to prevent any damage, In my case the wall in my patio / balcony is covered with concrete and then stucco, so it’s pretty strong ! But in any case is always good to be safe.! Thanks a lot for your comments! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Great helpful video thank you😀 using mirrors is a great natural way to reflect sunlight onto plants also.
You are so very welcome! It definitely is, I add just one at the balcony . But have a few others inside the apartment to reflect the light from the windows 😃
I just saw the first one and wow! can't wait to start mine!
I promise! You won’t regret it ! 🤩🤩🤩🤩 thank you so much for watching ! 🤩🤩🤩

Try some horwarthia. It’s pretty happy in low light. Love your video.
Love the video!
Thank you ! For watching ! 🤩🤩🤩🤗🤗🤗
Hi Angel, just coming across this vertical garden idea, also located in Los Angeles and going to try it out in my space, thanks for the inspo
I am so happy you find it ! 🙌🏼🙌🏼 I am planing to make a big one on my new back patio. Good luck with yours 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Thank you for watching !
I love this wall garden and cano wait to try it! - I can't tell what's on the right side of the succulent wall, but I wonder if you can place a full length mirror on that adjacent wall to reflect the sunlight onto the plants that don't get much sun exposure. Bonus...the illusion of more succulents!
Shana Harrison yes! I actually have one there ... it does help a little bit, but honestly they look so much better sink I got the growing light... 😅 I am doing a little bit of “everything” to keep them growing happy ! THANK YOU SO MUCH YOUR COMMENT !!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
You should use mirrors or reflective materials to increase sunlight reach to the rest of the plants.
D F yes ! Thank you for your comment ! I think so too ... I’ve thinking adding some mirrors it gets pretty dark 😓
I have a very similar grow-light: I use it to grow a miniature rose, and some lettuce, on my kitchen counter :)
I want to do something like that ! My husband wants to grow herbs for cooking and some lettuce too 🤩🤩🤩 I guess will be a future project 😁😁😁
thank you, it helped a lot
I am so glad it helped :) thanks a lot for watching !
Whenever I got through a pair of gardeming steel toe cap boots in lanzarote
Id plant an Aeonium lanzerotense and hang them from the pergola by the laces !
I wonder how far that could run as a concept...rather than the shoe holder ...the shoes !!
I think is a great idea ! I’ve seen it before where I come from 😄 Colombia. We are quite resourceful up there 😁😁😁😁 thank you so much for taking the time or writing a comment THANKS !!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
YAYY! So happy you uploaded! ☺️
Bella Jay so glad your get to watch it ! Thanks a lot !!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩
Awesome, thanks for the follow up. I am about to start this weekend. BTW what camera are you using that 4k is amazing.
That is so nice of you for noticing !!! :) you made all the money i spend gear worth it ! lol XD actually i used my Iphone 11 but I use this lens to have a better angle of view amzn.to/3edeHK1 its pretty fenomenal thank you for watching !!!!
Amazing follow-up video! Could you tell us which succulents handled the limited sun a bit better? That would be so helpful to know!
N A long overdue I will make a list very soon ! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 this is a great thing to know ! For sure
@@AIRStudio-AngelRiveros did you ever make that list?
I love your videos. Good for those of us who are on rescricted incomes. Plants heal the distress so many are feelingduring this trying time. I'm building an addition on my house.part art studio and part living space have been looking for deck ideas. This is great! Can the pockets be deconstructed to hold larger plants? Im planning a vertical veggie garden. Also, the micro irrigation systems are fantastic. They do produce water runn off. How do you collect that water? In you other video you said you use it for other plants. The micro system works great for container gardens as well!
Thanks for sharing this wonderful gift!
thank you so much for you kind comment ! i am very glad it bring a little spark in your own space. I am sure you will make a wonderful green wall for yourself ! thank you soooo much for watching!!!
I love it!! Have u considered planting ones that aren't succulents and shade loving? Anyway ur place looks beautiful I love ur ideas. Edit: I have hummingbird feeders too. Love them so much.
yes ! lol i did ..... i think that might be a better idea lol ! however i brought all my plants from my old place and i actually had a very nice and big back yard with full sun all year long! so thats why i have so many succulents ! and also i am just obsessed with them they are sooooo cute! XD I am working right now in a interior version of this idea and i am using tropical plants ! its going to be AMAZING xD thank you so much for watching and commenting ! btw the hummingbirds are so cute! they actually fly inside my apartment when the food runs out ! i cant believe how smart they are !
very jealous that u could do this at ur place!
HERMOSO ! QUE MARAVILLA. 😍
mami subscribete :)
I love how you explain everything! Would you be able to guide me as to how we can recreate this beautiful garden indoors?
varda amar he’s got a how to video
@@StinkyDustyBird I couldn't find it on his channel... if you have time would you be able to link it?
@@thejua-kaliway228 ruclips.net/video/LaSVugf6IPc/видео.html
I loved this Idea immediaty after your first video! I'm planning tot use IT for herbs and vegetables on the fence of oud small city garden in the Netherlands. Did the seam that you made yourself.with the sewing machine hold? No fraying on the seams? How many horizontale driphose passes did you use? One at every row with pockets seems a bit much to me.
I am so glad you like it !!! :D well actually i am surprised it hold so well for so long... i haven't have any issue with falling apart or anything. i basically just sewed twice for the mittle of the pocket basically to divide each pocket in half. if you a planing to grow herbs you could divide some at the top, because i think will be big enough and leave the full pocket at the bottom for veggies that may be require more soil. I think it might work great ! thanks for watching !! :)
Hello Angel yes I live in New York and I would be interested of doing a small area in my patio with the same system that you are suggesting which I think is very creative I just would like to know if you can suggest different perennial plants that Are as beautiful as the ones You are showing or do I have to use annuals.I also have a Southern exposure will have around five hours of sun. Thank you very much for your video
Genial, lo mejor de lo mejor 👏🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I've been wanting to start a vertical garden in our tiny balcony for a while now, and not being blessed with green thumbs, I've not been sure where to start. I loved both parts of this video, the original since you really explained everything really well and the technical things. And this followup that went through how your lovely garden had progressed. Its given me a great starting point. Since we live in Norway the weather is a bit more tricky to deal with. Do you have any recommendations for plants that will survive colder outdoor weather?
Madi Vithana so amazing to hear you from all the way to Norway 🤩🤩🤩 I am very glad also it give you a little bit of inspiration and may be some ideas of how to start your very own vertical garden. I honestly don’t have much experience with very cold weather plants. Since I’ve live my whole life in tropical or hot weather cities 😅 But I can say, I am sure you could fine some help in your closet Nursury or “plant” store they will be happy to give you ideas of which plants fit best your needs. ( I know there are some gorgeous flowers that can stand freeze temperatures like Cone Flowers or Pansies) those most of the times hide, but come back beautiful for spring. Also if you do one section or the vertical garden, remember you can easily move it to the interior of the house too so in this case you could have more options of plants and just protect them from the cold. I hope it helps ! And again thank you very much for watching and your comment 🤩🤩🤩
@@AIRStudio-AngelRiveros thank you for your reply! I decided to go with a shelfsystem, rather than planting directly in pockets so I can move plants as needed. You are indeed lucky to be in warm temperatures. But as you mentioned the local plant nursery have been helpful in helping find some sturdy plants that can survive the winter. I will keep watching for new videos and tips!
You can prevent the rusting process on the hooks if you whipe them very good with an alcohol based cleaner for windows or whatever. And then, you rub some candle wax on them. Be sure thst the wax is very oily. You will feel it when you touch the candle und make some dots into it with you finger. You will feel it. Tea lights a mostly perfect. Then take a toch or a normal lighter and let the wax melt on the hook and the bolt. This will bring the wax everywhere. With this method you can stop them from deteriorate too fast. I do this on every peace of metal or wood that is exposed to water very often. And redo it every 4 to 5 years.
Nice video. Looks great and thanks again for the great idea
Loved both your videos. Your honesty is so refreshing.
:) thank you !!!!
wow thats a great ! tip! thank you soooooo much ! :) I really want to do something about it THANKS !
I wanted to do this inside my living room any ideas? Thanks
Thank you for the update. How is material doing after 4 years? Any tears and replacement needed?
Thank you for your question, material is surprisingly doing great ! No tears or rips. I still think is a great option. Ps. IKEA for some reason isn’t selling the black one anymore just the white. I still use the white for other installation and is holding great just shows the dirt and dust more but other than that still works great. Hope it helps
hey there great video! if i want to this indoor-how would you recommend to do the irrigation system?
מור נבון hi! This be honest I would. Only because it is so much easier to take care of the plants like that . Other wise you will have to water one by one and it’s just a lot of work. The only think is you need to be EXTREMELY careful insulating the wall and the floor to make sure that your home is not going to be damage. I am working in a interior version hopefully will upload it soon THANKS FOR WATCHING !!!
Looks beautiful ! How often do you water them??
Hi there ! Thank you so much for watching! In winter time I water them generously once a week, in really hot summers twice a week 🙂 hope it helps !
Awesome video! What kind of plants do you recommend to use in the wall? My wall is indoors with sun in the evening only
Thanks:)
Jeroen - Reset Jezelf well I think indoors it’s a little be challenging for the watering BUT ! You can’t go wrong with the “devils ivy” I am making another video about how amazing this plant is for interiors (with some other ) So definitely I recommend you that one. It looks very beautiful and it’s very easy to take care of
@@AIRStudio-AngelRiveros Awesome! Thanks for your quick reply!
I love this video and the previous one a year ago. How much did you fill each pocket with soil?
Yes the people want to know 👍🤗
I filled each up to the top of each pocket, but the soil settles after a while so it won’t remain filled
Could you use a mirror or foil to bounce light onto the shade
yea that definitely helped i add a couple ones :) thank you for your comment !
I love plants, but last year i had a break down and threw them all away because of the pests. Do you have any advice on pest control?
omg.......... :c well i have lots of issues for some time with snails :O they loved my succulents then i had issues with a white little bug that looks like cotton ... it was driving me crazy! but anyway i just got a garden pest spray at home depot and actually it just worked great. Most Plants recuperate rapidly some just die... I think just try the sprays, it actually worked great for me Good luck ! thanks for watching :)
What the plant in the left part of video screen?
Hello from Honduras. Have you had experience with this system on exterior walls with strong sun? Does the polyester survive OK in it? I have an outside brick wall that gets like 8-10 hours of strong direct tropical sun per day. I'd place cactuses and hardy succulents in it because the heavy sun there burns jade plants & most other soft succulents. What kind of soil/substrate mix would you use for this exterior hanging garden? Here we have a dry season of 6 months that is very sunny, hot & dry + a 6-month rainy season that is cloudy, with frequent heavy rains. Which plants would you recommend for this tropical climate? Gracias!
Hello Francisco ! :) Thank you so much for your comment. To answer you question: i am very positive this would work great for your project. Here in los Angeles we installed one in a exterior wall and it takes sun pretty much all year long, we don't have to much rain, so i would advice to secure it just a little extra for the rainy season, just to be safe. and also make sure to have enought holes at each bag for drainage. I THINK IT WOULD BE PERFECT! JUST ONE THING MAKE SURE THE SHOE HOLDER IS MADE OF 100% POLIYSTER. Cotton or blend of cotton and polyester most likely will brake down for the sun and the water. Good luck !!! and let me know if have more questions :)
I think you should get some cheap LEDs from AliExpress. I have a cheapo 50w floodlight and it gets really really bright for close up plants, but you should get a 100w or 200w one.
I will check those up! thank you for watching !
Full spectrum lighting mimics natural out door lighting. I'm unsure of shape and sizes. Might be a little expensive, tho. This light is used by people who have Seasonal Affective Disorder to treat depression caused by not being able to go outdoors or live in areas that don't get a lot of natural light. It works for people depression. Might work for plant depression!.
@@deborahtheep2715 wow i did not knew that ! :O
I watched the first video, then came straight here. You are so luck living in LA with your climate. I would have to put that in a greenhouse in the UK, or perhaps plant it with alpines. Do you use any sort of fertiliser as presumably all that dripping water leaches nutrients from the soil? Very interesting though, well done
Same here in austria. In my area, we have very hot summers (37°C +) and extreme winter (-25°C some time). You need to be so carefull what you going to plant
aww that's awesome ! thank you so much for watching ! I just fertilize them with "plant food" they sell it at home depot its just a blue powder that i put once a month in the gallon spray bottle and just water them with it .... i am just amazed with succulents ! i had them for almost a year without adding anything and they still grow, However now with the grow light and the plant food they are growing much much healthier :)
How about a wall with all day sun in California, do you think succulent will survive ?
OH YES ! they love full sun! in fact they change colors sooooo beautiful ! when planted at full sun. Just be aware, sometimes they can get some burns so just be generous with good water and they will grow nice and healthy! good luck with your garden! and thank you very much for watching !
AIR Studio Vid - Angel Riveros actually I want to cover a big wall , I think this will make more insulting for it. This room in my house gets really hot in summer . I always wanted to make a vertical wall, but it was very expensive. Just watched your vid , now I think it is possible.
I hope I can find black color shoe holder in ikea . Thanks be well .
Will this damage vinyl siding? Can this method work successfully with herbs?
Vinyl siding should resist water just fine. And I am positive the herbs will be happy as long soil, water and light are the appropriate for the species 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 I have tropical plants and another one with succulent and cactus and they are very big and healthy
Love this idea. Could you mention what size pots will fit in the pockets. The space I would like to do something like this does get full sun, but I don’t think succulents will survive this far north in the UK so maybe I would go for alpines instead as they will be more hardy. A project like this would really brighten up an orphaned area of my garden that we will look out over on a regular basis but not use to sit in.do you think that this would work hung off a wooden fence rather than a solid wall?
Hi there ! thank you so much for watching and taking your time writing a comment! for sure the size of the pots that will fit the pockets ( if you cut in half the pocket ) are from 4 inches or 10 centimetres i think you could do even up to 6 inches or 15 centimetres aprox you can do seasonable plants, just drop then in the spring and may be replace them every year. I am not really familiar with very cold weather plants, but i am sure you can keep you eyes to see which type of plants grow easier in your area. I check malls and shops because i know they usually use the most cost effective plants :) ans those are my favorites :) thanks again ! and stay tuned !
How would you create a small vertical garden in an apartment using IKEA or other common items?
Can't you just use a garden hose to mist?
Definitely! As long is outdoors, you should be fine 🙂 thank you for watching 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Living in LA, do you have issues with UV deterioration with this setup?
Aurora Borealis thanks for your question. Actually I haven’t have any issue. Mine gets only partial direct sun for like 5 hours of the day (succulents usually want more hours of sun) but the material only gets a little “stain” for the water and soil but not “brakes” I have a client that has his in pure direct sun all day. And it looks very identical (only difference is his plants are much bigger and brighter because he has his own gardener and perfect irrigation 😅) this shoe holder is Made of poliéster which basically are fibers made or plastic, like plastic bottles. And as we know this ones can last for hundreds of years (which is bad for the planet is not reused) I guess if you are planing to make it just make sure the shoe holder is made of poliéster and no cotton I am sure cotton will fall apart in a couple months because is biodegradable. I hope it helps ! THANKS FOR WATCHING !! 🤩🤩🤩
Thank you for your info.
shout out to the special guest (the hummingbird)!
Hi--I'm a journalist with Vox Media and I'd love to ask you some questions about this!
Sure ! I am happy to help. You can send me an inbox in Instagram if you prefer ? @air_studio_dsgn 🤗
In regards to watering I would love to know if misting/fogging systems would be enough for the succulent in this layout
Stephen thank you for your question ! From what I know and have read... succulents can resist some dry times, but like to get the roots very moist as least once a week... I guess all will depend of how long you want to run the misting, i think if the misting system runs for a decent amount of time and get the soil wet.... I think you get yourself a very cool way to water your vertical garden ! 😁 if you already have it you should experiment, I would love to find out your experience. If you are only considering options. I must recommend the typical irrigation or the dripping irrigation they work just great. Thank you so much for watching
Is your grill from amazon nice and for small area
😄😄😄 it actually works great. This is the link if you want to check it out. I have the propane version but I am not sure if they still making it any more 🤷🏻♂️ I just found the electric one. Thank you for watching! 😊Char-Broil 20602107 Patio Bistro TRU-Infrared Electric Grill, Black www.amazon.com/dp/B084TQ21NV/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_unCVEbQPKEDX0
Thank you
I love this but they no longer sell this shoe holder! :(
:( i see they are taking a little long to bring this color back. I see they have available a white version and a new gray. If any of those you dont like there is some other available like this one amzn.to/3t7jKUS may be you find it interesting ... THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WATCHING !
Hi, essential hospital worker here 🙋🏽♀️
Would flower plants or herbs be able to make it here?
Need something to do during the days I am not working.
Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge
thank you for your work! :) and yes! ! i think as long you provide decent light and water to the type of plant they will grow happy... have in mind some plants are more difficult than other, I usually pick either tropicals like mostera deliciosa or evils evy or suculents. the tropicals do well in the shade and need some water, suculents do great a bright light and little water :) i hope it helps !
Low light plants will do better
i know :( I just didn't want to abandon my succulents from my last home heheehhehe i am planing to make one at the interior of my apartment is going to be AWESOME i will use with that one for sure low light plants :) thank you so much for your comment !
naah even after a year I can still see small plants, messy and dirty.
😅 thanks for watching… I know I am a mess 🥹
