Living Retaining Wall Construction

Living retaining wall construction involves building a retaining wall that incorporates living plants into the structure. This technique combines the stability of traditional retaining walls with the environmental and aesthetic benefits of vegetation. Living retaining walls are typically constructed using modular blocks, geotextiles, or gabions that allow for the integration of soil and plants. The process includes selecting appropriate plant species, ensuring adequate drainage, and placing the plants in the wall's structure. Living retaining walls help control erosion, improve air quality, and create a more natural, visually appealing landscape. They are particularly well-suited for eco-friendly and sustainable landscape designs.
