The small balcony raises flowers like this, which saves space and looks good!
The balconies of most high-rise buildings are only 35 square meters. How to grow more flowers in such a small area is a difficult problem for most friends. Now I will introduce some practical skills from four aspects: ground flower cultivation, wall flower cultivation, aerial flower cultivation and railing flower cultivation.
First, the balcony ground flowers
1. In the corner of the balcony, randomly place some potted plants, with the tall ones near the corner and the short ones near the corner, so that the height fluctuates and a plant corner is formed in layers!
In addition to considering the height of plants, you can also add some color combinations, such as the peripheral and tall plants with some color elements, and the short plants near the inside with some bright colors, which is particularly beautiful!
2. If you are a Virgo and want to put the flowers together neatly, you may wish to use the flower stand below, and it is best to buy the upper and lower floors, so that there will be more flowers!
Large potted plants put the upper layer of the flower stand, while small potted plants put the lower layer, making rational use of space and light. In the flowering season, it becomes a small garden.
If it is inconvenient to put it by the window, you can also put the flower stand against the wall. Usually, it can be used not only as a flower stand, but also as a shelf for placing sundries.
I don't like square and clever flower stands, but I can also build retro flower stands with hollow bricks, which is very emotional!
3. In addition to the above two methods, there is another way to plant flowers on the balcony, that is, directly build a planting belt with cement, then fill in the soil and plant your favorite flowers directly!
Besides planting flowers, you can also irrigate water, raise a few fish and plant a pool of lotus flowers. But do a good job in the waterproof layer of the balcony!
If you are worried about the bearing capacity of the cement planting balcony, you can surround the wall with stones and put your favorite flowers and plants to make a simple flower border!
Or put some pebbles, water pipes and clay pots to make a cool little waterscape.
Second, the balcony wallflower
Don't waste the walls on both sides of the balcony or the partition between the balcony and the living room. With the help of some gadgets, you can not only raise many flowers, but also easily make a flower wall, which is especially beautiful!
1. You can buy a wooden climbing frame on the balcony side wall. Planting clematis, roses and trollius is not handsome and will not destroy the wall!
This kind of grid climbing rattan frame can not only plant climbing vines, but also hang many potted flowers with hooks, which saves space very much!
Climbing vines can not only be used on the edge of the balcony, but also the partition between the balcony and the living room has good lighting, and you can also install a beautiful wall for planting Trollius chinensis!
2. If the climbing vines take up space, or the indoor balcony is not well lit, you can use wire frames to plant some shade-tolerant climbing vines, such as bulbs, ivy, and green radish. After maintenance, it can grow into a green wall.
3. In addition to climbing vines and barbed wire, there is another way to quickly build a green planting wall, that is, planting bags made of waterproof cloth, filling rows of pockets with soil, planting flowers such as green radish, chlorophytum and bracken, and the wall will turn green in seconds!
Clean white walls and green ferns are very comfortable and eye-catching!
I think it's too hard to build a green wall, so I just want to simply raise a few pots of small flowers. what can I do? There are many ways! You can put some partitions on the wall with iron frames and wood.
You can also let the decoration workers install several unique partitions and paint them in the same color as the wall when decorating.
I really don't want to go to too much trouble, but I can also DIY with wooden boards and thin stakes! Like the picture below, cactus is placed on it, so imposing!
If it's too much trouble, simply and directly, buy some wall-mounted flowerpots! Hang up and plant flowers!
Third, balcony air flowers
If you want to plant a variety of flowers, you must make full use of every effective space on the balcony, which can be hung in the air or overhead.
1. Buy a special hanging basin, hang it on a hanger, and plant Petunia, Liu Beili, Dolphin Flower, Margaret, etc.
You can also weave a net bag with hemp rope, put the flowerpot in it and adjust the height freely!
If you have strong hands-on ability, you can make a multi-layer hanging flower planter with plastic bottles and hemp rope, which is good for planting flowers and vegetables!
2. Besides hanging, we can also build a porch and plant beautiful climbing flowers, such as clematis, bougainvillea, radix aucklandiae, rattan, Lingxiao, Miluo and so on, so that the flowers can climb up along the porch!
Because the porch is too troublesome and rustic, you can also build a simple porch with ropes and poles and plant green plants. Too fresh!
3. I feel that the porch is not romantic enough. Climbing vines or wire can be erected on the roof, so that flowers can climb on the roof and you can see flowers all over the sky when you look up!
Or planting a grape on the top of your head is also good. When the fruit is ripe, you can pick it and eat it when you look up ~
Fourth, balcony railings and security window flowers.
Balcony railings, good lighting and ventilation, don't use them to grow flowers, it's just a waste of time!
1. Wall-hung flowerpot with hook, hanging inside the railing, can raise many flowers ~
You can also customize the wrought iron flower stand according to your own railing size. The installation is simple, all the flowers are put in, which is very simple and clean ~
I don't like iron flower racks, but I can also make anti-corrosion wood, which is in harmony with the wooden floor!
2. Use the inside of the railing, and don't waste the outside. Also hang wall-mounted flower pots to make the flowers more colorful!
Of course, there is a higher level of play, that is, covering the railing with climbing flowers, such as morning glory and climbing roses. Look downstairs, it's so bright!
3. The above applies to the outer balcony, but what if security window has an inner balcony? The method is the same, hang a wall-mounted flowerpot!
4. What should I do if there is no railing in security window on the inner balcony? Easy to handle! Make a flower stand or telescopic hanger on the outside of the window sill! But pay attention to safety, flowerpots and soil as light as possible!
Drinking tea in the leisure area is really a pleasure!
Where there are flowers, it will take a long time to leave a rest place for people to enjoy this hard-won garden time!
1, put a sofa, read and chat.
Sofa is more suitable for indoor balcony. Don't worry about getting wet. Put a sofa, read books in under the greenwood tree and chat with friends and lovers.
You can also set up a single person sofa and enjoy a person's alone time in the blooming flowers!
And outdoor balcony, afraid of rain, afraid of the sun, you can put a rattan chair or iron seat that is not afraid of water.
If you have children or girls at home, you can also make a swing and paint it. You are not afraid of rain. Of course, you should pay attention to safety. Those who live on the 1 floor can use it.
2. Set the table, eat and drink tea.
A romantic date on the balcony would be great! When autumn is crisp, cook a few simple meals and drink red wine while eating. Wine is not intoxicating!
If there are many families, you can also set up a big dining table and have a family dinner on weekends ~
People who like to drink tea, set up a coffee table in the bustling bushes and drink tea cross-legged, is also very comfortable!
3. Build a small bed and sleep in it.
It is also very nourishing to put a recliner on the balcony, shake the cattail leaf fan, smell the flowers and take a nap when you are free.
Make a hanging chair, lie back and sway, and fall asleep slowly!
Or simply make a wider cabinet, which can accommodate guests and serve as a bed!
4, make a tatami, party and storage.
Tatami is often used in decoration, and you can also make a row on the balcony. When friends come, you can sit on the stool and carry some messy things!
It's too difficult to sit up. Put a cushion or blanket and hold a pillow. It's very comfortable!
Beautiful carpets make the balcony warmer.
The flower planting area and leisure area have been built. Before these two areas are built, we still have one thing to do, and that is to install the floor.
1, install anticorrosive wood or floor tiles.
Now most people's balconies are either floor tiles or anticorrosive wood. Anti-corrosion wood looks better together, you can lay it yourself and use it more!
2, equipped with a beautiful carpet
In order to make the balcony more warm and comfortable, we can also spread a carpet on the floor tile or floor, not too expensive, as long as it matches the sofa and the surrounding environment!
Step 3 lay a fake lawn
If you want the balcony to be greener, you can also lay a fake lawn, sit on it or lie on it, and it doesn't matter if you play!
