NC-v4 WEc1:Outdoor water use reduction

Green walls

Hi, Do we have to include green walls in the calculation ? I would guess that yes since it needs water, but I want to be sure. Also, if it has to be included, which "Plant Type or Landscape Feature" is applicable when completing the Outdoor Water Use Reduction Calculator ? I don't see any choices that would match a green wall (there is Trees, Shrubs, Groundcover, Turfgrass and Pool) Thanks !

Julien, I would definitely include green walls as part of the landscaped area. What will be growing on the wall? Some kind of groundcover-type plants, I would imagine? I would probably choose the closest option.
