I help turn these overlooked concrete corners into lush, private sanctuaries where you can sit back and breathe. ## Photos and videos - [Video: This video shows the complete transformation of a high-rise balcony, from a bare concrete slab to a stylish wooden deck filled with beautiful plants.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/a53a08f3-447f-41ba-88d5-2d02acd45431) - ![A modern balcony garden with a stunning city view.

I use a custom lightweight soil mix with cocopeat and perlite to ensure your floor slab handles the structural load safely, while your plants get the right aeration to actually thrive in a pot. Balcony gardening in cities like Bengaluru and Mysore comes with specific constraints. You have limited floor space, varying sunlight, and you need to be mindful of weight. My approach starts with a site assessment. We check the sunlight patterns and your available space before choosing the right species. I often recommend a mix of hardy indoor plants like Snake Plants or Monstera if your balcony is shaded, or flowering varieties like Bougainvillea if you get direct sun. To make the space feel bigger and more comfortable, we install interlocking weather-proof wooden tiles or high-density artificial grass. These create a clean, usable floor that you can walk on barefoot. For the walls, I use vertical railing planters or hanging baskets. This keeps the floor clear so you can actually place a chair or a small table in your new green corner. Everything is set up using UV-treated rotomolded or ceramic pots that won't crack under the harsh Indian sun. My maintenance philosophy is just as important as the initial setup. I avoid harsh chemicals, preferring simple, organic tricks like arishina (turmeric) water to keep the soil healthy and pest-free. If you need help keeping things alive, I also offer regular visits for pruning and swapping out plants that aren't handling the season well. Whether it is a tiny 50 sq. ft. balcony or a larger terrace, we can build a setup that fits your lifestyle. ## About Shanki Hi, I am Shanki. My 'green pets' are everything to me.
