Real vs Fake Green Walls: Why Living Walls Are Worth It

Green living walls are now a popular way to add style, comfort, and nature to homes and businesses. But if you're considering one, you’ve probably asked yourself: Should I get a fake green wall or a real living wall?

At EcoPatchWalls, we only install real living walls and living frames because nature shouldn’t be faked. Here’s why it matters.

What’s the Difference Between Fake and Real Living Green Walls?

Fake green walls (also called artificial green walls) are made from plastic plants attached to panels. Real living walls are vertical gardens made with soil or hydroponic systems that support real, living plants.

Why Real Living Green Walls Are Better

• They Clean the Air

Real plants naturally remove toxins and produce oxygen — creating a healthier environment indoors or outside.

• They Look and Feel Alive

Every plant grows and changes, giving your space a living personality. It’s calming, refreshing, and truly natural.

• They Support Sustainability

Unlike plastic walls, real green walls reduce your carbon footprint and avoid synthetic materials.

• They Can Be Custom Designed

Every EcoPatch living wall is tailored to your light, space, and style not mass-produced from a mold.
