Meet The Team

“I highly recommend Vertical Garden Solutions. They created a stunning preserved moss wall for my client, SOM Aesthetics, Cosmetic Dermatology office in Encinitas, CA. They were terrific partners in every step of the process, from collaborating on the design to installation. I was very impressed by the teams genuine attention to detail and ownership. They even came back before the grand opening to make sure the wall was perfect and added a few pops of color. I look forward to working with them again on future projects.”
