Luxury Green Tropics Vertical Garden/Green Wall UV Resistant 1m x 1m

Luxury Green Tropics is a 1m x 1m artificial green wall panel with a dense, multi-layered tropical canopy. It is made from LDPE with RealTex colouring and UVTex UV inhibitors mixed into the leaf itself rather than sprayed onto the surface, which is why the colour holds through years of direct Australian sun. Where most green wall panels repeat one or two leaf shapes on a flat plane, Green Tropics layers broad tropical foliage at four different depths, so the wall reads as a planted garden rather than a printed pattern.

Each panel covers 1m², clips to the next panel along interlocking edges, and trims to size with ordinary scissors. Rated for indoor and outdoor use, frost resistant, and covered by a 5-year UV warranty. Not sure how many you need? Use the coverage calculator. Want to see and feel it first?

Installation

Designed for DIY installation on any flat vertical surface. Measure the area in metres, multiply height by width, and round up to the number of panels required.

1. Brick, render or masonry — fix with wall plugs and screws with washers.
2. Timber fencing — screws or staples through the backing grid.
3. Colorbond and metal fencing — self-tapping screws with washers, or zip ties through the grid.
4. Balcony railings and rentals — zip ties through the backing grid. Removes cleanly with no marks or drilling.
5. Joining and trimming — clip panels together along the interlocking edges, then trim edges and cut around taps, meter boxes and downpipes with scissors.

A typical 6m fence run is a single afternoon for one person. See the full step-by-step installation guide and video, and the fixings and installation parts you will need. Designer Plants also installs commercial and large residential projects Australia-wide.

Where it is used

• Fence lines and boundary walls — covers tired timber paling, Colorbond or bare brick without replacing the fence.
• Pool surrounds and outdoor entertaining — UV stabilised and frost resistant, with no leaf drop into the water.
• Shaded courtyards and light wells — needs no light, so it works where living plants fail.
• Reception areas and lobby feature walls — the look of a living wall with no irrigation or plant maintenance contract.
• Restaurants, cafes and hospitality — zones a room, softens acoustics and photographs well.
• Offices and workplace interiors — boardrooms, breakout zones and open-plan floors.
• Retail, events and brand activations — installs in hours and relocates without damage.
• Childcare, healthcare and education — SafeTex certified and non-toxic.
• Balconies and rentals — zip-tie fixing means no permanent modification.

Also specified for gym walls, rooftop terraces, carpark screening, heritage facades, showrooms, stairwells and festival structures. See commercial green walls for fit-out and specification work, or request a project quote.

Frequently asked questions

Is Green Tropics suitable for full sun outdoors in Australia?

Yes. UV inhibitors are integrated within the leaf material rather than applied as a surface coating, so there is no coating to wear off. A 5-year UV warranty applies to outdoor installations, covering colour retention and structural integrity.

How many panels do I need?

Each panel covers 1m². Multiply the area height by width in metres and round up. A 5m x 2m wall needs 10 panels. Use the coverage calculator for irregular or multi-wall areas.

How quickly does it ship?

1 day dispatch from our Melbourne or Brisbane warehouse, whichever is closer to you, with door-to-door tracking. Allow 2 to 5 business days to metropolitan areas and 5 to 10 to regional destinations. Shipping is $19.95, and free on orders of $300 or more.

What else do I need to install it?

Most jobs need only screws, washers or zip ties, all available in installation parts and fixings. For indoor walls the Eco-Home Safe Plant Cleaner keeps foliage dust free, and Home Safe UV Protection Spray extends the life of older outdoor greenery.
