Hog Hollow Living Wall

 

November 2007, our client needed to stabilize a rocky and very steep slope at the direction of the local municipality. A living wall was installed in order to create a suitable pad for vegetated growth that would stabilize the difficult slope. 12 inch Filtrexx Filtersoxx was injected with seed in order to produce a "grow soxx" and then installed along the slope to create a growth pad. A compost blanket was then blown-in on top of the grow soxx to create optimal vegetation and stabilization of the slope. As you can see in the pictures, the wall was installed in November 2007 and growth was seen in March 2008. The compost was able to hold the seed and start the germination process through the winter so we could see growth in the spring.
