We offer ideas for transforming your home into an urban oasis. With gardening on the balcony , the task is easy as long as you follow a few simple rules.
Gardening on the Balcony – Which Plants Are Suitable?
Gardening on the balcony follows many of the same rules as gardening in a yard. Basically, there are two options: you can place planters or hanging pots on walls and railings, or you can plant directly along the wall or floor. The first option is favored by many people because it offers flexibility, while the second requires more experience. When choosing plants for the balcony, consider the size of the space. Some flowers and plants need more room. Evergreens look beautiful on the balcony even in winter, while seasonal flowers decorate it during specific times of year. Climbing plants can also work as privacy screens, but you need to think in advance about how they will handle winter.
Gardening on the Balcony – Design Ideas
The second variant of gardening on the balcony is a planted wall. This approach is especially suitable for small balconies because it is flexible. If you wish, you can also create a small lawn and turn the balcony into a miniature garden. Owners of rooftop terraces can experiment more freely and design a real garden. Our advice: check which plants and flowers can stay outside in winter, otherwise you risk crowding your apartment with pots when the cold weather arrives. Be inspired by these ideas, and enjoy creating your balcony oasis.
