SET UP A BALCONY OR TERRACE FOR BEAUTIFUL SUMMER MOMENTS

Summer is the perfect time to enhance your terrace or balcony – not only with furniture but also with blooming flowers and other plant arrangements in flowerpots. Plants grown in flowerpots are not limited to summer flower seedlings – bulbs, herbs, various cultivated plants, expressive shrubs, and even trees can also be planted in pots.

“We work with flowerpots in many different ways. We create seasonal plantings according to the specific time of the year. We start the spring season with bulb flower arrangements planted the previous year. We plant bulbs in baskets in the fall and bury them in the garden for the winter. Then, in the spring, we remove the baskets from the beds and place them in the chosen pots. The ever-changing bulb flower arrangement with its rich flowering delights from March to May. In June, the bulb flowers are replaced by various summer flower arrangements, which we usually complement with an exotic broadleaf hydrangea in purple-pink tones. At the end of summer, we replace the withered flower arrangements with plants suitable for the autumn season – we plant chrysanthemum balls, heather or marigolds in pots, and for the winter season, we decorate the flowerpots with various natural materials – for example, we create cut branch arrangements from red rowan trees or place Christmas trees in pots, which we decorate with fairy lights.

Flowerpots give the opportunity to improvise and indulge in various seasonal experiments. We always emphasize that there are no rules, and we encourage planting in the pots what you like and what is blooming at the moment. There's also no reason to worry if one of the compositions you have created isn't successful – you can change the plants in the pots countless times throughout the season.

To enhance the space and create a more intimate atmosphere, we also plant large woody plants in the flowerpots, such as Lamark serviceberry and panicled hydrangea. Flowerpots are a relatively easy and quick solution to improve your surroundings and start your dream of a blooming terrace or garden. They always look magnificent, and you can achieve a great effect with them right away.
