Vertical Lush

by Calder Clark on August 22nd, 2010

There’s just something about green for me. A  few of our brides are really drawn to blues, which we can be a real bear for design when it comes to finding great linens, nailing a hue, etc. Still more of our clients love green, which is effortless . . . no one has to debate celery vs. celadon, or kelly vs. emerald- it’s all good!

Nature produces so much green as well, which makes our floral design a walk in the (proverbial) park. I love asking our favorite floral designer to garner everything from maidenhair fern to magnolia leaves to succulents for our looks.

Check out these stunning vertical gardens below. I’ve always wanted to design one as a band backdrop or ceremony pièce de résistance.

Don’t you want to stay here? It’s in the Hotel Pershing Hall in Paris . . .

Edina Todoki’s vertical grass wall

If there were more than 24 hours in a day, I’d spend them ogling this stuff. This vertical garden is at Greenpacks.org

I think Patrick Blanc knows what he’s doing with vertical gardens, no?

Via LaQuaintrelle . . . another gorgeous vertical garden wall.

This bold red vertical garden wall is by Gaetano Pesce . . . fab!
