I mentioned the idea of a balcony gardener's club last year and there was some interest. So I thought I might start a global one on facebook. Hopefully it may cast a wider net and we can find a larger group of people and start a face to face group in Vancouver. Here's a photo of my fish pond on my balcony. I'll add more later.
Could you put a link to your Balcony Gardeners Club? I'm in Vancouver and would love to join. I finally moved from an apartment with a north facing balcony to one with a south/west exposure. I've already started my tomatoes, peppers, green onions, lettuce and radishes indoors. Jonathon
Buenos Dias, I live in Tucson, Arizona USA - I have a vigorous balcony garden. I would love to join! May I have more information, please? Muchas gracias! Con regard, Tomato
I can't find photos of my balcony garden but here's a photo that I took years ago, of a 'balcony' garden - outside of a houseboat at Granville Island. The need to garden is hard to ignore.
Buenos Tardes, What an interesting idea! I agree that the urge to garden is strong and takes much strength to ignore. It was immediate for me upon moving into my little place. I can't quite recall, but I believe the plants were here before the furnishings. Thank you for sharing your photos. Photos of my summer 2008 balcony to reciprocate! Con regard, Tomato
My computer's not working so well so I can't cut and paste the link. I've copied it by hand so hopefully it's correct. http://www.facebook.com/home.php?ref=home#/group.php?gid=45613469257 Thanks for all the interest. Maybe into the growing season we can have a meeting and bring pictures of our 'babies'.
Hi, I moved into a NW facing apt. in New Westminster about a year ago, and would like to join your fb Balcony Gardeners Club, but the link above didn't work for me. Does this club still exist on fb? Christine
We are lucky to have a big patio... north facing, west end of the building. Sun starts to come around in the early afternoon, full sun for the last couple hours of the day. Pieris 'Forest Flame' and 'Flaming Silver' Hydrangea 'Two Tone' Acer p. Peaches & Cream Acer p. Amber Ghost Fargesia Jiu '2' bamboo Plus some other stuff!
