The Royal Horticultural Society of London challenged everyone this year who could make a pocket-sized realistic garden, and people didn’t disappoint! Here are the best Small Balcony Garden Ideas from Chelsea Flower Show!
A balcony garden like this can be your little green escape from city life. It features a rustic palatial Indian wooden door along with a soft blend of orange dahlias, matching perfectly with the blue color of Salvia ‘Amistad.’ Martha Krempel also included Schefflera trevesioides in this setting.
To cover the balcony, she has used a pergola that also provides support to Virginia creeper to climb. Altogether, this garden offers rich tones of a painted backdrop, combined with a mini English landscape, along with some red earth and boulders. Yucca and Pomegranate trees add a hint of height to the little space.
The Balcony of Blooms truly lives up to its name with various perennials and grasses. All this greenery adds a contrasting hue to the color and style of the building.
Two multi-stem spindles (Euonymus planipes) cement the fact that trees can be planted in a small space in containers and the color of the fruits beautifully complement the autumn shade on the foliage.
All in all, this garden proves that small spaces can be productive, practical, and enchanting.
The Landform Balcony Garden stresses more on inviting wildlife by growing plants like Helianthus, Salvia, Aster, and Hyssop to attract butterflies and bees to the space.
Seven son tree adds some height to the garden, and Cornelian cherry gives the space the symmetry it needs. All this makes the balcony a perfect place to unwind and have a relaxing time while making sure you end up contributing to nature by inviting pollinators.
