Although folk legend has it that succulents are plants for lazy people, people who grow succulents are never too lazy! Hand-renovating a balcony for succulents is something truly worth bragging about for a long time~
The panorama before the renovation, the fence installed last year, the paint applied, not very satisfied with the yellow.
The design sketch I drew myself, preschool level, as long as you can understand it haha
Here comes the big move, bit by bit from brick to cultured brick
The arch ordered from the welding department, although a certain online shop is professional, the shipping cost is outrageous
The effect is not bad, preparing it for the climbing rose
Updating while feeding the baby
A neighbor who does renovation work drew the CAD flower rack diagram for free, the anti-corrosion wood boards were bought from a certain online shop, and the neighbor's workers also built the flower rack. On the importance of having a helpful neighbor.
The succulents finally move into their fake luxury mansion
Planted a bit in the ground, still haven't figured out how to shade them and keep off the rain?
Pretty Pink Dragon, super love it
My husband says this is a doghouse, but I feel it's not bad
Boston ivy, looking forward to it covering the whole wall
Here comes the most important part, shade, shade! The magic weapon for succulents to safely get through summer
Let me talk about this shade net, a little proud, originally I was looking at the kind of sky canopy with tracks from a certain online shop, roughly calculated it would cost several thousand yuan.
No money, no money! So I had a shade net custom-made, ordered hooks, pulled steel wire ropes, made the keel myself, and when it was propped up it looked pretty good, only cost 350 yuan.
The leisure area is also custom-made, the purpose is very clear, you can eat hot pot while admiring the succulents
My brother-in-law also rewired it, installing a socket at each table leg, saying you can charge your phone and eat hot pot without missing either, thanks!
How could I forget the most important thing.. This rain canopy, I asked many shops and traveled many roads, after all the calculations the square tube polycarbonate sheet is still the most cost-effective, the light transmission is basically no different from glass, the workers welded it on site and sprayed black paint, the cost was 6000 yuan, about 35 sq m.
Here comes the ultimate comparison
That's the end, thank you all for following, final bonus, photos of the beautiful succulents' condition, may everyone go further and further on the one-way road of growing succulents, happier and happier!
