Plant Selection

Our plant design experts will work with you to go over a checklist of considerations that will help select the plants for your Green Wall. We can use many varieties and colors of plants for almost any application, including local/native species for exterior applications with our Pro Wall system.  Our extensive horticultural experience and a rich database of plant varieties will then help select the optimal plants for your Green Wall.

Once the design is signed off on by your team and GSky, we order the plants. Due to the fact that GSky has nursery partnerships across the country (including the largest plant brokers in North America) we are able to provide you:

• A wide variety of local and specialty plants
• Localized growth of plants, reducing transportation costs & emissions
• The capacity to service dozens of projects simultaneously
• Storage of pre-grown panels for maintenance substitution
