We installed a living wall at our amphitheatre in the Denver, CO area. It’s in 4 large sections and we have to replant it every may. It takes about 35,000 plants and a crew of 8-12 people 3-weeks to do the work. It’s an expensive project at about $40K per year. Every year, we commission a new flower pattern/design to keep it fresh. We work with a local greenhouse to pre-order the flowers/plants we will need in the fall so they begin growing them in their greenhouses. This way, they have some growth to them.

The wall was designed by Paul Kephart, Principal of Rana Creek Design out of California: https://rana-creek.squarespace.com/projects/fiddlers-green-living-wall

I hope this is helpful and please let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks!
