Balcony seen from inside flat 27th October 2022

Lots of pretty potted up plants there, Balc.

Thank you, Kate! Every year I fill the pots on the balcony railings with Pansies or Violas so as to have some colour during the winter months otherwise the balcony would look very depressing! In the spring they really burst into flower - if they aren't killed by some illness or aphid! (This has happened several times & for 2 years I changed from Pansies to Violas.)

pretty display , is bottom pot shape of teapot , looks sweet

A day or two after taking this photo I had to move all the pots & troughs as well as the bigger pots on the balcony floor back further inside the balcony as they were practically drowning in all the rain we had! A couple of days alter I put them back in their places but another couple of days later I had to repeat the operation! All the saucers under the pots were full to overflowing !

That looks really lovely and must give you a huge amount of pleasure - I do love pansies.

Crikey, it just shows that gardening on a balcony is hard work too! Hope all your pots are doing ok.

Thanks, Wildrose!

Yes, Kate, it can be as hard as working in the garden!
