A waterproof LED lamp 6 is adhered to the upper part of the planting box 4, and a reflecting mirror 13 is adhered to the lower part of the planting box 4. First overflow pipes 12 penetrate and are fixedly connected to the left and right side walls of the planting box 4 respectively, and the lower ends of the first overflow pipes 12 are bent towards the inner side of the planting box 4.

[0027] A bending part 51 is provided on the insertion rod 5, and a nut is threadedly connected to the upper part of the insertion rod 5.

[0028] The planting box 4 includes a rear vertical edge 41 and a front vertical edge 44. A water collecting inclined plate 42 is integrally formed at the lower part of the rear vertical edge 41, and a planting inclined edge 43 is integrally formed on one side of the water collecting inclined plate 42.

[0029] One side of the planting inclined edge 43 is fixedly connected to the front vertical edge 44. A support edge 45 is integrally formed at the upper part of the front vertical edge 44, and a water retaining edge 46 is integrally formed on the left side of the support edge 45.

[0030] The height of the rear vertical edge 41 is higher than that of the water retaining edge 46, and a water retaining side plate 9 is fixedly connected between the water retaining edge 46 and the rear vertical edge 41.

[0031] The number of the water retaining side plates 9 is set to two. The two water retaining side plates 9 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the planting box 4, and a reinforcing rib 8 is fixedly connected inside the planting box 4.

[0032] A second overflow pipe 11 penetrates and is fixedly connected to the planting box 4. A rectangular sleeve 10 is sleeved outside the second overflow pipe 11, and the rectangular sleeve 10 is fixedly connected to the planting box 4.

[0033] A wire passing cavity is formed inside the horizontal rod 3. A junction box 7 is fixedly connected to the front side of the horizontal rod 3, and the junction box 7 is electrically connected to the waterproof LED lamp 6 through a wire.

[0034] The core of the vertical planting structure for landscaping proposed in the embodiment of the present utility model lies in a series of innovative designs, which optimize the planting efficiency, light management and water control, while ensuring the stability of the structure and the convenience of maintenance.

[0035] By adding the bending part 51 to the insertion rod 5, the connection stability between the planting box 4 and the horizontal rod 3 is strengthened, and a more flexible growth space is provided for plants.
