Flowers on balconies
It is quite difficult to choose flowers that would look good both from the street and from the side of the apartment. When choosing colors, it is necessary to take into account the color of the facade of the building. Almost all flowers can come here, except white. In the event that the house has a yellow or brown shade, then you can place purple, red and blue flowers on the balcony.
So that the balcony does not seem too motley, you should not plant flowers of different types, with different colors. You can create harmonizing shades and boldly mix yellow, white and orange flowers. The cultivation of hanging plants is quite popular, their species produces a magnificent effect. High plants like gladioli, dahlias is better not to place.

Boxes for plants

For each of the selected species of plants for the balcony, you can use different soil, for example, clay, leaf compost, washed river sand or turf. The soil in the box should not be filled to the end, so that the possibility of watering plants is preserved.
Planting plants
