A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE
Fictional installation coordination: supply and plant one manufacturer-designed six-pocket vertical planter on an approved ground-level private courtyard wall. Provide six suitable plants, system instructions, watering/drainage demonstration and a condition handover. A competent installer assesses the wall and specifies fixings/wet loads; installation proceeds only with owner approval. Structural design, waterproofing changes, elevated access, mains irrigation/electrics and unsupported DIY anchoring are excluded.
