VelvetThunder+Followwhy did i fall head over heels for this tiny lemon balm plant?Never thought a little lemon balm would steal the show on my balcony, but here we are. I picked it up on a whim at the plant shop, thinking it’d just fill some space. Turns out, it’s the happiest, bushiest thing out there. I love how it smells when I brush past it—like instant calm. I started snipping a few leaves for tea, and now it’s my go-to evening ritual. The trick? I water it in the morning and make sure it gets a few hours of sunlight, but not too much. It’s honestly thriving with just a bit of attention. Plus, it keeps the bugs away from my other plants. Who knew one little herb could bring so much chill to my balcony? #balconyplants #herbgarden #lemonbalm #Gardening50Share
DrollDolphin+Followhow did my tiny balcony azaleas turn into a floral explosion?Last month, my little potted azaleas looked like they were just hanging on. I started chatting with them (yep, I talk to my plants) and switched up their spot so they could catch the morning sun. Watering got a schedule—just enough to keep the soil damp, never soggy. I even tossed in some coffee grounds, and wow, did they love it. Now, my balcony is a riot of pink and white blooms. Every time I step outside, it feels like a mini celebration. The best part? Watching new buds pop up almost overnight. Turns out, a little attention and the right spot can totally change the vibe. If you’re thinking about trying azaleas, go for it. The color show is so worth it. gardening #azaleas #plantcare #balconyplants #gardening #azaleas #plantcare #balconyplants40Share
angelicamoore+FollowNorth-facing balcony struggles—grow lights to the rescue?Just moved into a north-facing apartment in South Florida, and my balcony gets barely any sun (thanks, trees 🌳). Problem? I’ve got strawberries, jasmine, blueberries, and roses that love the sun. Thinking about adding grow lights, but no clue where to start. LED? Full spectrum? Clip-ons? #gardening #balconyplants #growlights70Share
