My seaside balcony garden has flowers blooming all year round

I moved to my new home in June 2015, and threw myself into the flower-growing endeavor, which has now lasted more than three years

By the sea, there is also a swimming pool, facing the sea with warm spring breezes and blooming flowers!

Now let me sort through the photos and show everyone the progress of these past few years

Flowers bloom all year round - this is the good fortune of flower lovers in Guangdong!

The balcony now: the fresh little beauty I just photographed this morning - Dianthus, and I moved the lavender out to bask in the sun

Fresh

Facing the sea, with warm spring breezes and blooming flowers

With little time to spare, I buy a few small seedlings, transplant them into pots myself, and also grow some pelargoniums. Several kinds of woody plants and moss rose are perennials that can survive the winter; in winter I just put them on the north balcony. It costs a few hundred yuan each year. On ordinary days after work I water and fertilize, and on weekends I repot and do this and that, taking joy in it all.

A big balcony, a big swimming pool, the sea....

It is rare to see it without flowers. In Shenzhen, only summer is the hardest time to grow flowers, but I have my great army of moss rose on the north balcony; after March I move them to the master bedroom balcony, prune and fertilize them, and by May, when the other heat-sensitive flowers are struggling, the moss rose is already in full bloom, along with blue plumbago, bleeding heart vine, wishbone flower, globe amaranth, crape myrtle, rain lily and more, all blooming again.

So beautiful it kills me, so intoxicating... like a fairy tale

The little blue spike flowers are lavender

Wrought-iron balcony hanging flower racks save space and still look very attractive

The fairy-tale world is a dream we have pursued since we were little girls, and it is worth pursuing for a lifetime.
