Just the other day I went on a walk through my neighborhood and noticed that there really ain't that many balcony gardens around. Even though there are a lot of reasons for starting your own balcony garden, it seems that most of people in my neighborhood don't think so or simply don't care.
Most of the balconies are left empty, letting the concrete jungle take over. However, those balconies that are transformed into urban gardens are mostly flower gardens usually created for pleasing the eye.
I must say that I haven't seen any veggies or herbs on these urban balcony gardens, but on the other hand you can't see what's growing on my balcony either. Some of them are simply to far away for my eye or even camera to capture it right. That's also the main reason why you haven't seen a single photo of my balcony garden from the street view, but maybe one day with a better camera that will change. For the time being, I'll be posting photos of various balcony gardens I stumble upon while walking the streets of Zagreb, just like this one.

i like the second garden. i'd like to see many many more.
Hi, I'm here the first time and I think your balcony post is very interest. It's the same like in the garden. One garden is full of plants and in another you can't find blooming plants.
Wish you a good Sunday Wurzerl
bring us more! :)
I want to start my garden balcony too and chanced upon your blog. Got lots of inspiration from it. Love to read more posting of yours!

Just my luck, I stumble into a neighbour-gardener's blog but he seems to be lost, walking the streets of Zagreb. We want more balcony pics! One pair of eager li'l greenthumbs can turn a whole pile of concrete blocks into an infinite pleasure to the eye !
Balcony gardens make such a wonderful difference in breaking up concrete stretches in the sky. I used to garden on a balcony - it was amazing how many veggies & herbs I could grow in a very limited space.
Where did you go? No updates on your urban garden, nor on your stevia blog, for ages.
Cheers.
Nice Urban Gardens.....But in Balcony its Wondered.....
Glad to hear you want to see lots of balcony food growers!
I'm trying lots of different vegetables on our tiny balcony this year. I'd like to encourage others to do the same and share how I get on at http://www.eightsquaremetres.com
Great Idea! I have a balcony too and I don't know what to put on. Thanks God! I read your blog and now I have an idea how to make it beautiful.
I love balcony gardens.. they add some nice greenery to just regular concrete
I love the second garden better. The first one looks unruly and sad. Balcony gardens are interesting coz it reflects your creativity!
This looks freaking awesome!

Hey, hope you and your apartment balcony are doing well in 2010. Any updates?
Your comment about balcony gardens planted with flowers that are "pleasing to the eye" is interesting. Yes, pleasing to the eye and calming to the soul. I get hours of visual enjoyment from my balcony and as well, I am learning the calming, meditative value of maintaining and fussing in my garden. I admire those of you who grow your own veggies out there!

Which is better about sunflower seeds vs sunflower oil for people health? Sunflower seeds and sunflower oil are integral components of a nutritious and versatile diet. Sunflower seeds, packed with nutrients like vitamin E, magnesium, and selenium, serve as a wholesome snack or a delightful addition to salads and baked goods. These seeds are renowned for their crunchy texture and nutty flavor. On the other hand, sunflower oil, extracted from these seeds, is a cooking staple celebrated for its light taste and versatility. Rich in heart-healthy unsaturated fats, sunflower oil is ideal for various culinary applications, from sautéing and frying to dressing salads. While sunflower seeds provide a satisfying crunch and a nutrient boost, sunflower oil adds a delicate and flavorful touch to a wide array of dishes. Together, these components offer a harmonious balance of taste and nutrition, making them essential elements in a well-rounded and health-conscious culinary repertoire.
