Vertical gardening is a way of expanding your gardening space. Whether you have a small space garden and want to grow more flowers or vegetables or want to decorate an exterior wall of your home, vertical gardening can help.

If you want your garden to grow upwards or vertically, you're going to need some structures to hold or support your plants in their growth. There are many different structures you can use: trellises, arbors, cages, poles, nets and even string with nails or hooks.

Some plants will attach themselves to the support structures while others will need to be tied or attached in some way. All sorts of plants can be grown this way. Vegetables such as tomatoes, cucumbers, peas and beans grow well. But don't forget flowers such as roses,clemantis and Confederate jasmine.
