We have researched and reviewed dozens of vertical planters over the years and have distilled this down into our favourite indoor vertical planters. A real mix of hydroponic towers, tiered shelves and stackable gardens.
A good indoor vertical planter should be:
- Aesthetically pleasing
- Or offer a yield focused benefit
- Easy to fit into smaller spaces
- Come complete with everything you need to get going
We have taken the same approach for outdoor vertical planters and indoor hydroponic systems too.
