Grow these plants the right way on your balcony, and a sensible layout turns it into a beautiful little conservatory
Many plant lovers may have rather small balconies, and whether you can create a good effect does not depend entirely on the floor area. If the balcony is small, planting some perennial herbaceous plants and climbing plants works quite well too. If the balcony is large, then there are not too many restrictions on the choice of plants to grow, and if the balcony has a bit of a curve, so much the better for creating a "winding path leading to a secluded spot" effect. Turning the balcony into a little conservatory will add the perfect finishing touch.
How do you grow flowers on a balcony with glass windows? Growing flowers on a balcony with glass windows requires opening the glass windows to let the flowers get ventilation. Summer weather is hot, and the balcony is even hotter inside, so shade netting should be used for shade. You can grow some plants with tenacious vitality, such as pothos, cactus, succulents and so on. How do you fix outward-extending racks to a balcony railing made of glass for growing flowers? It is best not to fix flowers outside, because there are many incidents of falling objects from high floors injuring people; it is recommended to just grow some on the balcony itself.
A plant lover said, my balcony faces north, due north. The view is open, the diffused light is good, and the ventilation is good, but in spring, autumn and winter there is no direct sunlight, and only in summer mornings and evenings does the sun reach it, which is very unfavorable and very regrettable for growing flowers and plants. My balcony is not large, and the area I can use for growing flowers and plants does not exceed 2 sq m, 6 cubic m. However, over these two years, slowly, I have been building my ideal garden on this small north-facing balcony.
Although it is still being constantly improved, and there are still many ideas waiting for me to put into practice on it, its prototype already makes me feel relaxed in body and mind. Balcony spaces are usually not large, and moreover, clutter accumulated over time makes the balcony feel even more cramped. In fact, all it takes is some unconventional thinking and clever creation, and after a few small changes or decorative touches, your own messy and "dusty-looking" balcony can take on a completely fresh look.
On the balcony you can place bamboo and rattan ornaments to create a pastoral feel. For example, bamboo roller blinds can be hung on the balcony windows to help keep dust from coming in; on the wall shelves, place a few bamboo storage baskets that are both attractive and generous, handy for storing all kinds of odds and ends. If there is enough space, you can also place a rattan rocking chair, vintage and elegant. On sunny days, being in such a balcony is both comfortable and relaxing.
Growing flowers is not hard to say, and to say it is easy also involves a lot of knowledge; you also have to adapt to your own circumstances, and learn lessons from the flowers that keep dying. If you like flowers and put your heart into it, they will surely reward you, and I believe that under your care, beautiful flowers will surely bloom in your home. The above summary is a bit disorderly, and only covers some simple ways to keep plants alive, suitable for beginners; if you want good shapes, pay attention to light duration and so on.
