For many urban dwellers who live in apartments, the balcony provides the primary space where you can enjoy the outdoor environment. A little effort can transform your balcony from a dead space into a worthwhile breakout where you can sit and relax for hours on end.
The typical balcony has at least some space for greenery and conditions for a few plants to thrive. Depending on its orientation, a balcony may be sheltered or exposed to strong winds and sunshine.
