The old saying "spring comes swaying" has proven true this spring too! However, the increasing light is a sure sign of spring and a promise of the coming summer. Now is the perfect time to clean and prepare your balcony for spring after winter. Create a stunning green room on your balcony or terrace by planting seedlings, updating pots for houseplants, and hanging baskets and lanterns to set the mood.
Wake up your balcony from its winter sleep
Whether you have a sheltered terrace or balcony at home, let your imagination run wild and add a lush spring atmosphere with seedlings, houseplants and unique interior design solutions. Hanging baskets at different levels and sprawling climbing plants easily create a rich, lively look. Colorful vases, lanterns, warm blankets, and floral textiles bring a wonderful atmosphere. The dining set on a glazed balcony can be decorated with various table linens, or fabric can be sewn into a beautiful panel curtain for privacy. Personal and rustic furniture and various storage baskets are suitable for outdoor spaces, but most of our wooden or rattan furniture and baskets made of natural materials are recommended for use only in dry, covered, or glazed outdoor spaces.
Heat-loving plants such as pumpkins, tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, and chili peppers are suitable for a glazed balcony. Corn also thrives well in a glazed environment. Among summer flowers, geraniums, marigolds, marguerites, and nasturtiums thrive in warmth. Plants make a glazed balcony a comfortable green area where you can also grow your own vegetables and fruits.
What could be more wonderful than enjoying a coffee break in the shade of your own little oasis on a sunny balcony or terrace!

Prepare your own potted garden
Establish your own nursery on a sheltered, sunny balcony, or, in the absence of outdoor space, on a bright windowsill! Get your hands in the soil and plant seeds, seedlings, and herbs in beautiful pots. Our selection includes high-quality, domestic ceramic pots, in which you can choose the seedlings and plants you like. Now is also a good time to give your houseplants new life by changing their pots! Our ceramic pots, manufactured at our Posio ceramic factory, withstand all weather conditions, so you can safely use them outdoors as well. Herbs bought from the store can also be beautifully arranged in mugs, jars, or small pots if you want to quickly create an impressive herb garden!

Create a playful green oasis
You can easily create a relaxed, abundant atmosphere with an arrangement of several pots or glass vases. Vases filled with cut flowers or natural branches and flowerpots with houseplants instantly bring life, energy, and visual delight to your decor. Play around by combining different pots and vases to create your own charming composition. Decorative baskets add a cozy, comfortable atmosphere and are handy for storing loose items needed on the balcony, such as planting tools. Baskets can also be used as decorative covers for plants, but we recommend adding, for example, a plastic bag or a shallow tray inside the basket under the flowerpot so that watering water does not dampen the basket.
