• Most balconies and decks are exposed to the elements,• For areas in full sun, choose heat lovers, such as succulents and cacti. For exposed coastal environments, go for plants that naturally grow in these conditions, such as rosemary or native grasses.• Grouping pots creates a lusher look and also reduces transpiration, meaning your plants get less thirsty.• Check how much weight your balcony can take before adding heavy pots of soil.• Think vertically. Climbers such as jasmine, bougainvillea and muehlenbeckia are ideal for screening off unwelcome views.
