Musée du Quai Branly is a museum of African, Indian and other arts located in Paris. The entire facade is covered with 15.000 species of plants from China, USA, Central Europe, Japan and is work of a botanist and an artist Patrick Blanc. The plants are mostly composed of mosses and ferns that are more resistant to external conditions and wider changes in temperature, exposure to the sun and atmospheric precipitation. The external vertical walls should be checked 2-3 times a year. Patrick Blanc has installed about 250 vertical gardens all over the world and visits every 2-3 years to have examine and to have an insight into the development of plants, as well as general condition of the wall. He also regularily receives photos of his vertical gardens from people that maintain them in order to inspect the situation and the growth. 

Vine can form a natural vertical garden as the fourth picture from the gallery. However, maintenance and shortening a climber which naturally spreads wherever favorable conditions are, can often be a challenge.

Smaller vertical garden can find its place in the interior and perfectly fit into any design space, from African style to the strict minimalism as the fifth picture from the gallery.

Vertical gardens can be arranged as advertisements, to show a photo or company logo as is the case with PNC Financial Services Group in the sixth picture from the gallery.

Also, the vertical garden can also be used to disguise and cover any part of the wall or fence that are aethetically not sastisfactory as  in seventh picture.
