Light is the key to decide what plants are suitable for planting. To plant plants on the balcony, you must first know the orientation of the balcony. Because the sitting direction is different, the light source, sunshine number and wind force will be different. Knowing the light intensity and choosing the right plants are the key to the success of balcony planting!

skill

There is a strong northeast monsoon in winter in Taiwan Province Province. If the balcony has strong directionality, it is suitable to choose relatively low plants with thick branches, hard leaves and small leaves. Plants with thick branches have good water retention, and their leaves are small and hard, so they are not easy to be dried. Don't choose too delicate plants (such as African impatiens), because they are easily damaged by the wind.
