Frost-proof containers are a must in Colorado. The initial investment might give you pause, but when you think about how easily plastic pots break, it's worth getting pots that can be used year round. Large pots can be anchored with a tall perennial flower or even small shrub, and filled-in with annuals for more color. Draping vines like sweet potato ('Marguerite' in chartreuse green!) provide contrasting color and texture against a jewel-tone container.

A green space for children in an urban environment to play outside is very valuable. That space can be a nearby playground, a park or even better a balcony, like in this case. Unique decoration that catches the eye of any visitor contributes to the cheerful atmosphere of the balcony. The floor has been covered by artificial grass, which is a safe and appropriate material for the small ones to play on the floor. At the west side there is a vegetables bed with a low bench, which creates a safe limit and can also be used by children. When there is not much time to go to a playground, this balcony is a perfect solution for spending fun moments outside.
