On a mission to transform my Balcony Garden!

Relocating households and coping with a new setting was difficult for all of us. I have to leave many of my plants and belongings in the hope that I will redo them in our new place.

It's been almost two months, we have done organizing things and now it's time to give my balcony a new look. Many of you may have known that I had a small balcony garden with almost 50 plants. Now I only have a few. But in the previous week, I bought some plants to transform my garden into green again.

I found a roadside plant shop nearby and gave it a visit. The price was a little high so I couldn't buy as much as I needed to. I will try to explore some more places to compare the prices.

This place mostly sells indoor plants but there are some outdoor plants as well. They have plant pots, soil, pesticides, soil nutrients, and garden tools as well.

It was a pleasure to explore the plants. I have asked for the prices of different plants and was looking for what to buy as I was not sure. The price differs according to the size and variety of the plant.

The price is negotiable and I believe I made a good deal.

I purchased these 5 pieces. They are all in a temporary sack, I have spare pots in my house so I need to replant them. I also bought some soil nutrients and a small cute pot.

Before purchasing I kept some points in my mind. For example, the health of the plant, the soil condition, etc. Moreover, I have chosen to buy two plants in one sack. So I can spare them in another pot if necessary and they look much fuller.

Hopefully, in a few days, I will replant them, and share the update.

I have also planted some flowers and vegetable seeds on my balcony a week ago. They will germinate in a few days. I'm so excited for all of them, and to see them grow. I can't wait to see my balcony green again!

Have a good day, everyone.

You got it right. Having a peace corner at my home is what makes the home feels 'home' to me :)

I like the cactus plants. I find them so cute. I don't have that kind of plant. Great you love shopping plants. They're stress relievers.

I used to have two cacti but not anymore in this house. Probably will add a few in the upcoming days.
Thanks :)

I remember your balcony. I must have missed that you had to move. How hard it must have been to leave so many of your plants! You weren't able to bring many of them with you?

Congrats on getting started on another balcony. I'm sure it will be as beautiful as the last.

Good to hear that. I do bring some of the plants. But as many of them were climbing plants/vines, and some died in the process so I have only a few left now.
But hopefully, I can bring the green again.
