Know-how

Advice for this space

  1. 01

    Plan for the wind

    High up, wind topples and dries. Prefer heavy, low pots, group plants so they shelter each other, and stake slender specimens.

  2. 02

    Terracotta dries fast in summer

    Being porous, it lets water evaporate: in July a south-facing balcony can need daily watering, early in the morning or after sunset.

  3. 03

    Drainage is compulsory, watch the saucer

    Clay pebbles at the bottom, a clear hole, and empty the saucer after watering. Standing water at the base of a pot causes root rot.
