Climate change is bringing extreme summer heat to many more countries, but using the right plants in your garden could help keep your home a bit cooler next summer.
Whoops, did not read “balcony” before my response. So, green cooling is still on the table, but needs to be potted. Maybe a small potted citrus? Kumquat do great in pots.if it gets really hot though, you’d probably need a tray of water below the pot to make sure it doesn’t dry out and bake.
Good idea, if we can find any that are the right size for a balcony.
