As proof of the fact that recycled PVC products can be both aesthetically appealing, highly practical and meet a need in the market, a hanging garden made by Just Green landscaping was recently one of the finalists in the Best Recycled Product of the Year Competition, hosted by the SA Plastics Recycling Organisation (SAPRO).
“These hanging gardens are made from three 1 meter PVC gutters, and are ideal for apartment dwellers confined to small balconies, or for use on your patio.
They are an easy DIY project, are virtually maintenance free and a great way to take advantage of the unused spaces around your home to grow flowers, edibles and create a stylish space divider or privacy screen without having to worry about slugs”, explains Just Green’s Wynand J Fourie, the landscape architect who made and entered the product for the competition and is now also selling easy to assemble kits to the general public.
