Jane Fonda is widely celebrated as a Hollywood icon, renowned for her roles in Grace and Frankie, Barbarella, and Book Club. Given her decades in the spotlight, it is perfectly understandable that she seeks a private sanctuary within her Los Angeles home – particularly in her garden. To maintain solitude in such an exposed outdoor area, she has turned to vertical garden ideas as a stylish solution.

In an Instagram photo, Jane is pictured relaxing on a bench by a large outdoor dining table, which is styled with green and cream printed cushions. While her color-coordinated outdoor dining arrangement is impressive, the vertical planter in the background is the true standout.

This ‘garden trend’ has seen a significant surge in popularity recently, fueled by social media praise for its positive impact on mental well-being. With the endorsement of Jane Fonda, vertical gardens are expected to experience another peak in popularity as we head into the planting season.

‘Vertical gardens are a creative way to elevate an otherwise ordinary space into your own mini landscape, which grows, changes, and transforms your living space,’ says Bloom & Wild’s plant expert Keira Kay. ‘They not only make for great social media content, but they have many health and environmental benefits.’

Outside of acting, Jane Fonda is a dedicated activist and a leading voice in the climate change movement. It is fitting, then, that vertical walls are among the most eco-friendly garden features available. ‘Outdoor green living walls can improve the air quality of a city by filtering harmful toxins and pollutants,’ Keira says.

‘They are beneficial for the climate, decreasing the UHI (urban heat island effect). On top of that, they can be a haven for wildlife, such as birds and insects, within busy cities.’

Whether you are an urban dweller or live in the countryside, a Fonda-inspired vertical garden is a perfect way to make a statement and protect your privacy as the weather warms up.
