People living in the city, more and more like to return to nature and enjoy the leisurely life in the countryside. More and more family friends like to treat the balcony of their home life as a vegetable garden or garden, and open up a small world in a small space.

Enjoy the spiritual pleasures of gardens and the joys of hands-on experience. It is indeed a happy thing to plant fruits and vegetables in a small "garden" and enjoy the fun of pastoral planting that cannot be experienced in urban life.

Here are some planting knowledge to share with you.

You need to choose a well-drained area. If there are places where there is water standing after the rain, the soil may have clay or rocks in the soil that prevent the rain from seeping through. This is detrimental to the growth of the roots of many plants. If soil conditions are less than ideal, you might consider making your own planting bed filled with nutrient-rich, well-draining soil.

Think about the visual effect you want to achieve. If you want to see the garden out of the window from the house, put the garden in the line of sight of your windows. Don't plant flowers under deciduous trees, it's easier to keep them tidy.

It's easy to make a garden on flat ground, but it's also good on slopes where you can get nice visuals. Choose an area without too many roots and rocks, where the soil is easy to cultivate.

You need to know when to plant. Different vegetables, flowers, herbs, and other plants must be grown at certain times of the year. Some plants must be planted before the last frost of the year, and some must be planted after temperatures reach above zero. Some will be planted in spring, while others will be planted in summer or fall. Planting time requires your special attention.

You need to know how orientation might affect them. Orientation affects planting choices. South facing, full sun and good ventilation, is the most ideal planting place.

What plants to plant depends on personal preferences and needs on the one hand, and on the other hand, which plants are suitable for your own environmental conditions. The so-called environmental conditions, the most important is the orientation and the closed situation, the orientation determines the lighting conditions, and the closed situation determines the temperature conditions. When the temperature allows, plants are generally selected according to their orientation. East-facing and west-facing balconies are half-sun, suitable for planting plants that like light and tolerate shade.

If you lack outdoor greening conditions, you can use your brains on indoor greening. For indoor greening, choose shade-loving flowers and trees with ornamental green leaves as the mainstay.

For example: Chlorophytum, Ivy, Clivia, Yucca, Palm bamboo, Iron tree, Phoenix tail bamboo, Monstera, Rubber tree, Pearl orchid, etc. The above flowers and trees are warm and cold, and they must spend the winter indoors for about half a year from October to March of the next year.

During the other half year from April to September, as long as the indoor air is well-ventilated, and when the weather is hot, the flowers and trees can grow well by placing them in a ventilated place by the window. Among them, Clivia can also open bright and dazzling flowers for people to watch. Water bamboo, Yucca, and Evergreen tree can be planted in soil or in water like daffodils. The method is simple.
