Installing artificial green wall panels outdoors is a straightforward and easy process for even novice DIYers. Each of our panels has a durable, grid-like backing that makes it easy to attach to fences, walls, or timber structures using screws, cable ties, or staples. For the best results, your surface needs to be clean and flat. Then, you can use our snap and lock system to join multiple panels and cover larger areas. For a professional finish, many clients choose to work with installers, but the process is designed so most homeowners can do it themselves. For more detailed information, follow our
The lifespan of artificial plants varies by manufacturer and material. At Designer Plants, thanks to our Eco-Tex technology and the durable materials we work with, our faux plants typically last at least 5 years outdoors, with many examples of them lasting beyond that. Faux plant lifespan depends on climate and installation location too, but because our products have UV resistance as part of the raw material, not just a surface spray, the greenery remains realistic and color-true for years.
Absolutely! Designer Plants' green wall panels are flexible and can be trimmed or bent to suit curved walls, irregular shapes, or bespoke design features. Many landscapers and designers use this flexibility to wrap columns, soften harsh architectural lines, or add some greenery to tight spaces. You can also mix and match your vertical garden panels to create custom textures and patterns.
Some are, some aren't. Luckily, Designer Plants artificial green walls use the proprietary Safe-Tex technology that ensures the products are made from high-quality, non-toxic materials. They're free from harmful chemicals like lead or heavy metals, so they're safe to touch, play near, or even install in children's rooms or pet-friendly areas. The products don't release volatile organic compounds (VOCs), are certified by ISO, REACH, and RoHS guidelines, and are hypoallergenic.
Yes, we take safety seriously. If you need your artificial plants to be resistant to fires, we have a collection of fire-retardant greenery that follows NFPA 701 standards. These products meet key fire safety criteria required for commercial and residential projects and don't catch fire or propagate flames. These products have been independently tested in labs, and our team can provide the reports upon request. To be on the safe side, we suggest you also talk to professional builders and regulators to double-check if the products meet your specific requirements.
Yes, Designer Plants offers UV-resistant artificial hedges specifically designer for outdoor privacy screening. The products are lightweight, easy to mount, and can withstand wind and inclement weather, which makes them a popular choice for apartment dwellers and homeowners alike. Plus, since they usually mimic boxwood, fake hedges are great for taking back some privacy.
Artificial green walls can be significantly more cost-effective in the long-term. While the upfront cost may be similar to a living wall, you incur most of your savings down the line, from the nearly zero maintenance - no watering, no fertilizing, no pruning, and no expensive irrigation systems. Living walls often need ongoing professional care, replacements, and regular weeding and cleaning. In contrast, artificial green walls keep looking perfect with just the occasional hose down or dust-off.
