ABOUT BALCONY HAVEN
Why Balcony Haven?
Balcony Haven was created to help apartment gardeners succeed where typical gardening advice falls short. Most gardening guides assume you have a yard, full sun, or open soil — but balconies bring unique challenges.
We focus entirely on small-space gardening: wind exposure, shade issues, container soil problems, watering efficiency, balcony safety limits, and plant selection for micro-climates.
If you’re growing plants above ground level with limited space, this site was built for you.
