Aprende a diseñar jardines verticales y cuadros vivos from edX

Te damos una cálida bienvenida al Curso de Jardinería Vertical y Cuadros Vivos, donde aprenderemos a realizar 3 tipos de cuadros.

Te vamos a introducir en este nuevo mundo de la jardinería vertical.

Los jardines verticales son muros vegetales que pueden ser usados tanto en interior como en exterior, sin necesidad de suelo o sustrato horizontal.

Los cuadros vivos son la mínima expresión del jardín vertical.

Aportan los mismos beneficios de forma compacta y de fácil instalación.

En los jardines la protagonista es la vegetación. La vegetación es el conjunto de plantas, que en éste caso van a componer éste jardín.

Los vamos a estar acompañando a lo largo de éste recorrido, que les permita conectarse nuevamente con la naturaleza, revalorizar la flora en la que ustedes viven, y de alguna manera, volver hacer un uso más eficiente de los recursos naturales.
