I have a terraced balcony very large, on the top floor of a building located on a very sunny corner, without the shelter of neighboring buildings and trees. It is an ideal place to have a urban garden Due to its generous surface area but sometimes it brings me problems because due to the intensity of the sun and the wind many plants do not resist exposure.
It is known that not all species and varieties resist the inclemency of the wind and the sun, but if we are talking about sunny terraces, we must pay close attention to choose the correct plants and then survive throughout the months.
La america rose is ideal for these sunny spaces Because in addition to being resistant, it gives us beautiful and colorful flowers. It can grow in a pot and is ideal for decorating terraces because it reaches 3 meters in height. Flowers from summer to fall.
El buddhist pine It is another species for sunny outdoors and is an evergreen tree with very dense foliage that offers a green blanket and is ideal for privacy. On the other hand, it requires little care, hardly more sun than average and warm temperatures.
Then there is the coral honeysuckle, a plant that owes its name to its intense color. It is an evergreen plant whose flowers are sweet and vital. It can grow in a pot and it is important to prune it to control its growth and place it in a place with little shade.
Finally, if you have a terrace with a lot of sun you can opt for the heavenly bamboo, also known as domestic Nandina. In this case, we are talking about an evergreen shrub whose leaves are green in summer and crimson in autumn. Although it resists full sun, it is best to partially cover this shrub during the day.
