Living plants or preserved moss?

A living wall contains plants that grow and need suitable light, water, and care. A preserved moss wall is a decorative surface made from treated plant material. Our service focuses on living plant walls, with optional ongoing maintenance.

What you get with a living plant wall

Real plants produce new growth and change over time. A wall-mounted system holds the plants and supports a watering arrangement. The design must account for light, mounting, moisture protection, and care access.

You can choose a small framed feature, an indoor panel, or a suitable outdoor installation. The planting should fit the conditions, rather than using a fixed mix in every setting.

How preserved moss is different

Preserved moss is treated material used for a decorative finish. It does not grow like a living plant wall and should be maintained according to the product’s instructions. Watering it like living plants may damage it.

Product requirements vary, including placement and humidity conditions. If you are comparing quotes, check whether each provider is offering living plants, preserved material, or artificial greenery. These are different products with different care needs.

Which choice fits your goal?

Choose a living wall if you want a growing garden and can provide suitable conditions. The routine can be managed by you or through an agreed maintenance subscription.

If you want a particular decorative surface with no living-plant watering routine, compare preserved or artificial products on their own terms. We will explain whether a living wall fits your space before quoting our service.

Ask these questions before deciding

What is the material? What light and environmental conditions does it need? How is it mounted? What care is required? Who handles replacements? Clear answers make it easier to compare the whole installation and its upkeep.
