These flowers are ideal for the balcony in autumn and winter, keeping your home full of life and spring-like all year round

As autumn temperatures drop lower and lower, the balcony becomes the main place for growing flowers and plants. Today, the editor recommends several flowers and plants that are very suitable for the balcony, so your balcony can be full of spring vitality in autumn and winter too.

Bougainvillea

When it comes to flowers for the autumn and winter balcony, bougainvillea is essential. Autumn is a key period for bougainvillea growth, so we need to care for it well and ensure sufficient fertilizer, water and light to prepare for the coming bloom.

When the bougainvillea is close to its full bloom period, we can appropriately control fertilizer and water to promote flower bud differentiation, and when it blooms it will burst into a pot full of flowers!

Clematis

There are many varieties of clematis, and different varieties have different bloom periods. Varieties such as 'Hagley Hybrid' and 'Green Jade' can even keep blooming in December. So if you want flowers to enjoy in winter too, you must choose the right varieties when planting.

Because clematis grows fast and is itself a climbing vine, the flower pot chosen must be somewhat large. In autumn and winter it can receive light all day. Clematis stems are slender and break easily, so the stems and vines should be tied and guided promptly.

Kalanchoe

Kalanchoe has a very long bloom period and is an ideal winter and spring flower. When kalanchoe blooms at Spring Festival, the house is full of joy and vitality.

When caring for kalanchoe now, it can receive light all day. Water by "watering when dry, letting it dry between waterings." During the growing period, some monopotassium phosphate can be applied, and remember to apply light fertilizer frequently.

Heartleaf ice plant

Heartleaf ice plant is highly ornamental, with bright little flowers blooming on drooping branches. It is very beautiful and an excellent potted plant for the living room or balcony.

Heartleaf ice plant has a very long bloom period, from spring until late autumn, and under suitable temperature conditions it can still bloom in early winter as usual. Heartleaf ice plant likes a warm, humid environment and needs plenty of light during the growing period, otherwise the leaves will lose color and it will be difficult for it to bloom.

Clivia

Clivia mainly blooms in winter and spring. It likes a cool, humid growing environment, and light should mainly be scattered light; in winter it can appropriately receive full light.

Before potting, we can add some decomposed organic fertilizer to the bottom of the pot, which can promote blooming and make the flowers more numerous and more vivid.

Christmas cactus

Christmas cactus is a very ideal potted plant for autumn and winter, because its bloom period is in winter, right around Christmas, so in the West people also call it "Christmas flower."

Christmas cactus likes a warm, humid growing environment and requires good ventilation for growth; stagnant air is not good for its growth. Before the bloom period, some organic fertilizer can be applied to make the plant robust and promote blooming.
