Matthew McGregor-Mento is an adamant and effective proponent of ?green? living. His level of understanding of water systems and plant propagation are beyond the lay person and even many professionals. He called BDBNYC in late 2008 to discuss his perceptions of Mr. Patrick Blanc’s system and get information as to how he might be sure to be successful in implementing what he knew. Through our collaborative research and his hands on approach, his wall remains one of the most successful DIY residential green-walls in North America.
