Moana Nursery Landscaping of Reno has completed construction of what the company believes is the largest green wall in northern Nevada a 400-square-foot wall in the atrium in the new Schluter Systems training and distribution facility at Tahoe Reno Industrial Center.
The 225 plants, a mixture of philodendrons and n'joy pothos, are rooted in the wall and watered by automatic drip irrigation system.
Green walls act as a bio-filter for air and water pollutants.
The wall at the Schulter Systems facility was designed by James Molder, an architect with Cathexes in Reno. It incorporates a glass waterfall.
Miles Construction of Carson City built the building. The green wall was built and waterproofed using Schluter's Kerdi-Board product.
Schluter is a tile-accessories company.
