For netizens, a detailed explanation of what flowers are suitable for growing on a balcony with good sunlight and a review of 4 heat and sun-resistant flowers for balcony cultivation. The knowledge about flowers will be introduced by the editor of this site.
In early spring, the weather is warm and pleasant, and everything is reviving. Almost all flowers usher in the most vigorous growing season of the year, which is also a good time for flower enthusiasts to buy new flowers. If you have a south-facing balcony or windowsill at home and want to grow a few pots of flowers for decoration, you must pay attention to choosing the variety. A south-facing balcony or windowsill with good sunlight is definitely not suitable for shade-loving plants like epiphyllum and orchids, as they will quickly die in the sun. We recommend 4 "heat-resistant flowers" that are heat and sun-resistant, with a very long flowering period, blooming for half a year at a time.
Bougainvillea
Bougainvillea, also known as paper flower or triangle flower, has been very popular among flower enthusiasts in recent years. It has a tree-like shape with sturdy stems and comes in many varieties, each with different colors. It has excellent flowering ability and is known as a "flowering machine." Bougainvillea has a long flowering period, with individual flowers lasting 20-30 days, and it can bloom throughout the year with proper care.
Bougainvillea has exceptional heat and sun resistance. In hot regions like Guangzhou and Hainan, it can be planted outdoors. Even in summer with temperatures above 40 degrees Celsius, it continues to bloom without any shade.
Care Tips
Bougainvillea prefers a warm and humid environment with plenty of sunlight and has poor cold resistance. The minimum winter temperature should not be below 5 degrees to avoid frost damage. Bougainvillea prefers loose, fertile, well-drained, slightly acidic soil. It requires plenty of direct sunlight, at least 5 hours a day, during spring.
Jasmine
What Flowers are Suitable for Growing on a Balcony with Good Sunlight
"What a beautiful jasmine flower, fragrant and beautiful with white petals, praised by everyone." The pure white and fragrant jasmine flower is a favorite of many flower enthusiasts. Native to the subtropical regions of India and southern China, the hot climate of its original habitat has given it excellent heat resistance. Jasmine continuously produces flower buds and blooms from spring, and even the hot summer does not affect its flower production. Moreover, jasmine loves sunlight and does not need to be shaded in the summer, making it particularly suitable for balconies with good sunlight.
Care Tips
Jasmine is a typical southern flower that prefers a warm, humid environment with plenty of sunlight and should be planted in loose, fertile, humus-rich, slightly acidic soil. Do not take it outdoors too early in spring to avoid frost damage to the tender branches and buds. Wait until the temperature is stable above 15 degrees before moving it outside. Watering should follow the principle of watering when the soil surface is dry and white, and do not water when it is not dry.
Sunflower
Just by the name, you can tell how sun-resistant sunflowers are. This flower is known for being heat and sun-resistant. Simply plant it in a pot with some soil and water it occasionally, and it will bloom, earning the nickname "immortal." If you are a beginner flower enthusiast and want to grow some flowers in a well-lit position, I highly recommend this one; you won't regret it.
