I am always talking about "the question" - why would you choose a solid wall with no possibility for vegetation and habitat, when you can have a "living wall" at a comparable cost which brings so many benefits to the project and our environment? My thinking is, lack of understanding and limited product availability are driving the status-quo. Well not anymore!

I am happy to anounce that my friend, associate, collaborator, Mark Ostendorf is defending his Masters Thesis on April 29th at 9 AM. All of the information regarding the blessed event is included below. I am scheduled to be in attendance for the defense of his work and look forward to his successful presentation to the panel. Mark's research on behalf of the SIUe greenwall testing program has be very helpful through the years and he will be missed going forward. The "green wall / Living Wall" market niche has been advanced by the data he has already published and I look forward to reviewing and understanding his final work. Congratulations Mark!!

Here are some blog links to Marks' previous work and the SIUe testing program. Comprehensive Living Wall Data from SIUe / Photo Updates From SIUe Greenwall Test Site / New Data Coming Out of SIUe / Living Retaining Wall Research Updates - SIUe Testing
